This just gets nuttier and nuttier as well as more and more ominous for
anyone who is a mapleback. Effa's so worried about Trump's dictatorial
potential but Trump ain't got nothin' on Justin Trudeau's dictatorial
reality. He's actually managed to work in *both* pre-crime penalties
*and* ex-post facto law into the same bill. That's an achievement I
don't think even Stalin and Mao managed to accomplish:

     The C-63 legislation authorizes house arrest and
     electronic monitoring for a person considered likely
     to commit a future crime. If a judge believes there
     are reasonable grounds to 'fear' a future hate crime,
     the as of yet innocent party can be sentenced to house
     arrest, complete with electronic monitoring, mandatory
     drug testing, and communication bans. Failure to
     cooperate nets you an additional year in jail.

     What is a hate crime? According to the Bill, it is a
     communication expressing 'detestation or vilification'.
     But, clarified the government, that is not the same as
     'disdain or dislike', or speech that 'discredits,
     humiliates, hurts, or offends'.

     Unfortunately the government didn't think to include a
     graduated scheme setting out the relative acceptability
     of the words offend, hurt, humiliate, discredit, dislike,
     disdain, detest, and vilify. Under Bill C-63, you can
     be put away FOR LIFE for a 'crime' whose legal existence
     hangs on the distinction between 'dislike' and 'detest'.

And if that's not fucking terrifying enough, as mentioned above, Trudeau
has also added a retroactive ex-post facto feature to the bill:

     Canada to Imprison Anyone Who Has EVER Posted 'Hate
     Speech' Online

     The Trudeau regime has introduced an Orwellian new aspect
     to C-63 (The Online Harms Bill), which will give police the
     power to retroactively search the internet for 'hate speech'
     violations and arrest offenders, even if the offense occurred
     BEFORE the law even existed.

If you don't thank every day whatever higher power you believe in that
you live in a country whose founders not only gave us the Constitution
but anticipated shitbags like Justin Trudeau and preemptively blocked
them from being able to do bullshit like this, then you and I have no
common frame of reference.
