The Fascists at Our Borders

Our northern border, that is.

The Canadian “Human Rights Commissions” have lately provided a couple of chilling examples of how fragile our freedom of speech really is.

They came after Mark Steyn for allegedly misrepresenting Muslim interests in a Maclean’s Magazine article. Visit the “Free Mark Steyn!” website for the latest developments on that front.

They also came after Ezra Levant, former publisher of a Canadian magazine who had a complaint filed against him by a Muslim for publishing the infamous Mohammad cartoons. Levant tells the whole story on his website. His opening statement to the Commission (see video below) is a classic defense of our most basic human right.

Those who are having fits over the title of Jonah Goldberg’s new bestseller, Liberal Fascism, need to take a long, hard look at what is happening across our Western culture. As political correctness slowly chokes our freedom to speak our minds, our societies are gradually being transformed into gulags of thought control, dominated by fear of reprisal.
