Ask Your MP To Repeal Section 13

Gerald Chipeur, a lawyer representing former Alberta Youth Pastor Stephen Boissoin, discusses Section 13 in an interview with Tristan Emmanuel. If you haven't heard of the Section 13 yet - it's the section of the Canadian Human Rights Act designed to ban speech that is likely to offend. And, since each one has a different understanding of what's likely to offend, the section makes it easy for the Human Rights laws to be misused by those who have a cause to try to shut down debate. Repealing the ambiguous section is the only way to stop this legal abuse. Please ask your MP to repeal section 13.
