Hate speech laws in Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In Dawn Stefanowicz's article, this legislation and the Human Rights Commission were presented as oppressive bogeymen, to put fear into all non-toers of the party line. I don't agree with this view one bit.
In my experience, Americans tend to think of our hate-speech provisions as weird and overly repressive. I'm used to them, I guess. But even I will admit they don't always work.
