'Hate
Law' unconstitutional in Canada
ABCD
Ottawa —
On September 2, the
Vice-Chairman of the the 'Canadian Human Rights Tribunal'
Athanasios Hadjis, ruled that section 13 of the 'Canadian Human Rights
Act' violates
the Canadian Constitution
.
ABCD
The case began in 2003 as a complaint had put forward
by Richard Warman
against Marc Lemire (photo), who is the webmaster of
'freedomsite.org' . Warman,
holder of the 'Saul Hayes Human Rights Award' from the
'Canadian Jewish Congress' for distinguished service,
alleged that messages posted to 'freedomsite.org' were discriminatory.
Lemire responded by challenging the constitutionality of Canada’s
'Hate speech law' in 2005, asserting that it is inconsistent with the
'Charter of Rights and Freedoms'. After four years before the tribunal, Hadjis agreed.
AB
For the past 14 years, Vice-Chairman Hadjis always delivered a GUILTY verdict.
After presiding over the present case of the accused internet
'Holocaust questioner' Marc Lemire, Hadjis proclaimed that
it’s not a 'Hate crime' to doubt that six million Jews were killed in the
'Holocaust' primarily with gas chambers. The Canadian branches of the
'Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith' (Canadian Jewish Congress and B’nai B’rith Canada) loudly decry Hadjis’ rebellion. It was they who finally persuaded
the Canadian Parliament in 1971- after a decade of lobbying
- to enact their 'Hate law', the 'Canadian Human Right Act' and its infamous Section
31 .
To preserve the 'Hate law', the Canadian government may contest Hadjis’ decision even to Canada’s Supreme Court.
AB Section 13 of the
' Canadian Human Rights Act' was used against Ernst Zundel
in his five-year battle to protect free speech on the
Net. Zundel's then attorney, Barbara Kulaszka, who was
instrumental in today's victory, did most of the major legal work assisting Mark
Lemire, as did former Zundel Defense Attorney, Doug Christie
.
In other words, Zundel was legally harassed and hounded for more than two decades in Canada on the basis of three
unconstitutional laws - the 'False News' law (declared unconstitutional and stricken from the books in 1992), the National Security
Act (declared unconstitutional after Zundel’s deportation to Germany in
2005), and now the Hate Speech law.
