There was an amendment before Canada's Senate to make residential school denialism a crime. The legislation is Bill C-9, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural places). One of our readers said the change is "childish. This is his message to Canada's senators: Bill C-9 reminds me of the mean games and petulant accusations that children in school yard playgrounds use to manipulate each other: "I'm changing the rules!" "You can't say that! You hate me!" Bill C-9 seems to want to regulate people's thoughts, their speech, and their emotions, not their physical actions. But who will determine what constitutes "detestation" or "vilification"? A person who doesn't like what you or I believe or say? Who will determine how to interpret words that are subjective and sometimes self-serving? With this in mind, I urge you to defeat Bill C-9 when voting time comes in the Senate. God bless. The senators must have listened. The good news is …
The news is not good; looks like that Bill, C9, now with the amendment making it a criminal offense to in any way question the lie that the Resedential Schools abused and murdered native Children. ( In fact, no bodies were ever found.) has passed. Cardinal Leo of Toronto wrote to the Senators, hoping to underscore the need to protect religious freedom... "At this stage of the process it is vital, therefore, that an unequivocal clarification be added to the bill making it abundantly and unmistakably clear that the reading of religious texts, as well as teaching and preaching are not in any way considered the intentional promotion of hatred of any kind."...Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for us.
Návrh zákona C-9 prešiel kanadským Senátom a čoskoro by sa mohol stať zákonom. Táto legislatíva by odstránila kľúčovú ochranu náboženských prejavov a mohla by kriminalizovať učenie založené na Biblii, napríklad o škodlivosti homosexuality. Samostatný pozmeňujúci návrh, ktorý by kriminalizoval popieranie propagandy týkajúcej sa internátnych škôl, však Senát nakoniec zamietol.
O projeto de lei C-9 foi aprovado no Senado do Canadá e poderá em breve tornar-se lei. Esta legislação eliminaria protecções fundamentais para o discurso religioso e poderia criminalizar ensinamentos baseados na Bíblia, tais como a maldade da homossexualidade. No entanto, uma outra alteração que teria criminalizado a recusa de propaganda relativa às escolas residenciais acabou por ser rejeitada pelo Senado.
Projekt ustawy C-9 został przyjęty przez kanadyjski Senat i wkrótce może stać się obowiązującym prawem. Ustawodawstwo to usunęłoby kluczową ochronę wypowiedzi religijnych i mogłoby kryminalizować nauki oparte na Biblii, takie jak zło homoseksualności. Jednakże oddzielna poprawka, która penalizowałaby zaprzeczanie propagandzie dotyczącej szkół rezydencjalnych, została ostatecznie odrzucona przez Senat.
Il disegno di legge C-9 è passato al Senato del Canada e potrebbe presto diventare legge. Questa legislazione eliminerebbe le protezioni chiave per il discorso religioso e potrebbe criminalizzare gli insegnamenti basati sulla Bibbia, come la malvagità dell'omosessualità. Tuttavia, un emendamento separato che avrebbe criminalizzato la negazione della propaganda relativa alle scuole residenziali è stato infine respinto dal Senato.
A C-9-es törvényjavaslat átment a kanadai szenátuson, és hamarosan törvényerőre emelkedhet. Ez a jogszabály megszüntetné a vallásos beszéd kulcsfontosságú védelmét, és kriminalizálná a Biblián alapuló tanításokat, például a homoszexualitás gonoszságát. Egy külön módosító indítványt azonban, amely a bentlakásos iskolákkal kapcsolatos propaganda megtagadását bűncselekménnyé nyilvánította volna, a szenátus végül elutasította.
Le projet de loi C-9 a été adopté par le Sénat canadien et pourrait bientôt devenir une loi. Cette législation supprimerait des protections essentielles pour le discours religieux et pourrait criminaliser des enseignements fondés sur la Bible, tels que la méchanceté de l'homosexualité. Toutefois, un amendement distinct qui aurait criminalisé le refus de la propagande concernant les pensionnats a finalement été rejeté par le Sénat.
El proyecto de ley C-9 ha sido aprobado por el Senado de Canadá y pronto podría convertirse en ley. Esta legislación eliminaría protecciones clave para la expresión religiosa y podría criminalizar enseñanzas basadas en la Biblia como la maldad de la homosexualidad. Sin embargo, una enmienda separada que habría criminalizado la negación de propaganda relativa a las escuelas residenciales fue finalmente rechazada por el Senado.
Die Gesetzesvorlage C-9 hat den kanadischen Senat passiert und könnte bald Gesetz werden. Diese Gesetzgebung würde wichtige Schutzmaßnahmen für religiöse Äußerungen aufheben und könnte biblisch begründete Lehren wie die Schlechtigkeit der Homosexualität kriminalisieren. Ein separater Änderungsantrag, der die Verweigerung von Propaganda über Internatsschulen unter Strafe gestellt hätte, wurde jedoch letztlich vom Senat abgelehnt.
Bill C-9 has passed Canada's Senate and could soon become law. This legislation would remove key protections for religious speech and could criminalize Bible-based teachings such as the evilness of homosexuality. However, a separate amendment that would have criminalised the denial of propaganda concerning residential schools was ultimately rejected by the Senate.
I feel very sorry for you. Did you know the first State to pass laws curtailing freedom of speech, specifically antisemitism, was the Soviet? We have a long history in the States of having laws framed by the ADL, a communist organization, that aim to practically make every perversion legal. And then they pass a law saying it is antisemitic! Honestly it is just the continuation of the "Errors of Russia."
The news is not good; they are passing that law, and also another, which puts one in mind of the Zionists: it will become law that anyone who dares deny that the residential schools caused great harm; abused and murdered children will be liable to arrest and may be sentenced to two years in prison!!!
