Holocaust Denial to be Criminal Offense in Canada (1 Viewer)

[92.eth]

Because nothing will stamp out anti-semitism like imprisoning people for questioning the official narrative

April 8 2022 | The Canadian Press

OTTAWA - Holocaust denial is to be outlawed in Canada, in a further effort to stamp out rising antisemitism.

The federal government is set to make it a criminal offence to make a statement denying the Holocaust took place or condoning or downplaying the killing of Jews by the Nazi regime, except in a private conversation.

Ministers plan to use a bill enacting the budget to swiftly change the Criminal Code, budget documents show.

The move to outlaw Holocaust denial comes as MPs and anti-hate groups warn about the rise of white-supremacism and antisemitism in Canada.

“Jewish Canadians comprise one per cent of the Canadian population yet are the target of 62 per cent of all religiously motivated hate crimes,” said Richard Marceau, vice-president of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs. “We live in a time of rising antisemitism.”

Canada will join a string of European countries, including Germany, Greece, France, Belgium and the Czech Republic, which have already prohibited Holocaust denial.

Six million Jews were systematically killed in Nazi-occupied Europe while Hitler was in power, along with other groups, such as Roma.

“Holocaust denial and distortion constitute a cruel assault on memory, truth, and justice - an antisemitic libel to cover up the worst crime in history - and thereby a cruel and mocking rebuke to Holocaust survivors and their legacy,” said Irwin Cotler, the prime minister's special envoy on preserving Holocaust remembrance and combating antisemitism.

The budget earmarked $5.6 million over five years to support Cotler's office.

Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino said “there is no place for antisemitism and Holocaust denial in Canada.”

“That's why we've pledged to prohibit the wilful promotion of antisemitism through condoning, denying or downplaying the Holocaust,” Mendicino added. “The Holocaust was one of the darkest chapters in human history. We must preserve its memory, combat contemporary antisemitism and be unequivocal when we say: never again.”

The government move to change the law follows the introduction by Saskatoon Tory MP Kevin Waugh of a private member's bill prohibiting Holocaust denial earlier this year.

Waugh said the government proposal was “word for word” the same as in his bill and he was surprised to see it in the budget.

But the Conservative MP said having the government push through the law was a “win for everybody.”

“There is no place for racism in this country,” he said.

Waugh said he would not withdraw his bill, which has its second reading debate at the end of April in the Commons, even though banning Holocaust denial will be part of the budget bill.

He said he wanted to ensure the change to the Criminal Code is enacted as soon as possible.

The budget does not say what the penalty would be for a person convicted of Holocaust denial. Waugh's bill proposes up to two years in prison.

The NDP has said it will vote for the budget, under the terms of its confidence and supply pact with the Liberals, which will mean the bill will pass through the Commons.

If the law is changed through the budget bill first, Waugh's bill aiming to prohibit denying the Holocaust happened in statements will be rendered redundant.

The Department of Justice did not immediately respond for a request for comment.

The budget set aside more than $70 million for initiatives benefiting Canada's Jewish community.

This includes $20 million for the relocation and expansion of the Montreal Holocaust Museum and $2.5 million to support the Sarah and Chaim Neuberger Holocaust Education Centre in Toronto.

This really shows how these 👃 actually control more than just media

Oh Canada, free speech includes the right to deny reality if one so chooses.

Funny, because Canada has gone full Nazi in recent memory...

Next denying you’re the one that stinks out a room with a silent fart will be life imprisonment.

Did the jewish holocaust occur? Of course it did and the kikes have been milking it for last 75+ years. I wish they'd move on and quit their kvetching. All sorts of cultures or religions have been on the shitty end of the stick and they don't get the same public sympathy as the jews.

As for our cunty government making it illegal to deny or downplay the jewish holocaust, I think its complete bullshit. Again, yes 5 millionish jews died in often brutal ways but if I want to look like a muppet and say it didn't happen or that it was no big deal that should be my right. If someone were to publicly deny the jewish, or any, holocaust they're not causing an immediate danger to anyone else and therefore protected as freedom of speech. If you don't like or agree with what someone has to say but they're not yelling "fire" in a crowded theater than you need to suck it up and deal with it.

Canada puts people in jail for not wearing surgical masks while they're walking in a park by themselves, they put people in jail for everything that their leader doesn't like, democracy be damned.

Exactly! Of the millions dead the jews bleat about there were dissidents, gypsies & fags all rolled into those millions as well that weren't jews, gottsta make up the numbers!
It would be interesting to know the numbers the Nazis purposedly killed & the number of jews that died of disease in those camps & the bodies disposed of through cremation ( OH,NO! jews put in ovens! )
Stalin murdered millions more of his own Russians than the jews ever lost, no crying & bleating from the Russians though, just sucked it up.
If you look through history no race has a good word for the jews, why's that???????
