Via Five Feet of Extremely Vigorous Anger, I highly recommend the video of Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant testifying before the Canadian Parliament's Justice and Human Rights Committee concerning their experience with the infamous Section 13 matter both of them have been persecuted under. This is a cautionary tale for Americans to understand so that we can avoid the sort of free speech defiling regulations that anti "hate speech" legislation inevitably becomes. You can watch the entire testimony of these two extremely articulate men at Levant's blog, here.

What's also interesting is the feeling one gets that these MP's they're testifying before are really all about preserving their own jobs, power and relevance and that these hazy regulations give something for they, and their family members who may also draw salaries serving on the various commissions, to hang their hats and draw their salaries from. Preserving useless regulations are part of preserving their own relevance.
