Canada's Bill C-16: Transgenderism and the Loss of Common Sense
Canada Free Press ^ | 04/28/17 | Martin Tampier

If our MPs are unable to grasp the simple concepts explained below, rightly discerning what really are facts and fiction

Bill C-16 is intended to add the terms “gender identity” and “gender expression” to the Canadian Human Rights Act. The Bill also “amends the Criminal Code to extend the protection against hate propaganda set out in that Act to any section of the public that is distinguished by gender identity or expression,” leading many to believe it will lead to a severe restriction of open public discourse on this topic once the bill is passed. Forty Conservative members of parliament (MPs) have voted against passing this bill on to the Senate after its second reading in the fall of 2016. At the time of writing, it was at its second reading in the Senate. It would become law if approved by the Senate at its third reading.

The bill has been criticized because it is said to be unnecessary (transsexuals are already protected against discrimination under the current Human Rights Act) and violates the conscience of many Canadians by imposing the government’s views by law. The following four key issues with this bill are submitted for due consideration by our lawgivers and all others.


TOPICS: Government; Health/Medicine; Politics; Society
KEYWORDS: canadac16; commonsense; homosexualagenda; transgenderism; trudeau

Raping a kid is maybe legal 10 years down the line in one of these countries, I’m thinking one of the Western European ones will lower the age of consent to 11 or 12.

Not that consenting means ANYTHING coming from an 11 or 12 year old. It likely means they’re terrified to say anything else but.

But they won’t let annoying things like that get in the way.

The Canadian Civil Rights commissions are the Title 9 rape commissions on campus on steroids.
They have the ability to send people to mandatory “ethics” training, levy fines, forbid you from going somewhere, limiting speech.
Liberals say that isn’t a threat to liberty because you can’t be sent to jail ... but violating their rulings can result in contempt of court rulings that the official courts will send you to jail for.
That is what Democrats would have done with our society had Clinton had won.

Shouldn’t we all be protected from each other under the law?
