Family Action Coalition points to the "gag"
law ruling as yet another restriction of freedom in this
non-democracy of Canada. " What an absolute misuse
of power and the Charter for the six judges who now claim
that there is justification in the Charter to restrict
the amount of money a third party can spend during the
election. It is dictatorial and reprehensible. Elections
are supposed to be about information and ideologies being
debated. Not anymore", says Brian Rushfeldt , Executive
Director of Canada Family Action Coalition.
The
"court jesters" surely do jest. Six PM appointed
"high court" judges now misuse the Charter to
restrict what people can say at election time by limiting
spending. The bells of communism and political dictatorship
ring here. You may have elections but "WE" the
supreme beings will tell you how much you can spend to
say it. What is next? outright restrictions on what Canadians
can say, the words they use. And when will this occur,
just for the 36 day election cycle or for months before
an election.
This
foolish ruling, which disagrees with every other judge
who has heard this case before, is the very reason the
process of political judicial appointments must change.
This latest decision is nothing but a political decision.
That is a misuse of judicial powers. That is dangerous
and that is unacceptable.
This
law combined with the new donation law earlier this year
guarantee a unduly influenced election. The earlier law
limits what you can contribute to a party but then takes
your tax dollars and gives over 13 million to the Liberal
party. Now we cannot discuss ideas and issues in public
anymore. Does this smell? Like draconian dictatorial control
of the masses ?
Citizens
must react at the polls. This election has just become
more about democracy and freedom than ever before. PM
Martin said last week this is the most important election
in years. He is right, but I am sure he was not referring
to the dictatorial removal of Canadian freedoms.
Restrictions
on freedoms such as this are not of democracy, they are
of dictatorship. They are not of justice but of politics.
They are not of our elected but of political appointees.
Time
to stop it . The election is here. Is there a party who
will put a stop to this abortion of justice?
