Doubt, if you grew up in Turkey with Turkish culture I doubt you'd prefer having Greek ancestry.

Canada is fucked lmao I need out.

C-10 gave the government the power to regulate internet content including social media end users under the old Broadcasting Act (intended for old radio and TV broadcasts). now bill c-36 will give them the power to define what they consider to be hate speech on a whim and punish it with fines of up to $20,000 for first offense and $50,000 for subsequent offenses; using information pulled from ISP's, social media companies, etc. to faciliate.

people kept repeating that the Liberals aren't stupid enough to try to censor the internet even after they removed the provision exempting end users from Bill c-10, but now it's clear that that's exactly what they're doing - and of course they are citing the incident in London as proof that this is required even though the perpetrator had little to no online presence as far as police have determined

Ngl as much as I like to shit on the dumpsterfire of US politics I'm starting to fear we're slipping behind in the healthy democracy game as well. Beyond bill C-10, parliamentary democracy has been in decline over the last two decades. It started with Harper but Trudeau has really solidified executive power into the PMO: unless he starts literally stabbing MP's neither his party nor cabinet are gonna check him. Not likely CPC leadership will reverse this trend.

tl;dr Canadian Party Leader's winning 38%+ of the popular vote have and will continue to have 100% executive and legislative powers... we're fucked.

I dont think thats a surprise really, is it? Jackie is only as big as he is because he doesn't speak out against the party, it only makes sense that he endorses/joins it
