If I'm reading that correctly... they're fine with him stealing because he has ptsd and depression... what?Not just fine with him stealing, but fine with him remaining a cop.
Canada has a lack of protests problem
we had an illegal protest... the cops showed up and joined themA bit how we come back to how Canada has no free speech or free speech laws. Protest can be censored and you can be arrested for what you say.

Not really. There have been like 10 people arrested for hate speech country-wide in the last three decades, and every single one of them had it coming. Hate speech laws are applied very sparingly; the whole "muh free speech!" thing is thoroughly overblown.You only need to apply then sparingly to chill free speech. And it's not just criticism of the government that is censored or even illegal. You can even be sued in Canada for leaving a bad review because you have no protection whatsoever.
"Illegal protest" is more a matter violating laws as a core element of the protest, such as blockading critical infrastructure. It's nothing to do with the content of the protest.

sorry our mental illness leaked on you canada, get well soon.
The problem is that Canada is basically too far crazy in the opposite direction.
If you could fusion dance Canada with Trump's side of America, you'd probably wind up with a fairly well-adjusted personality somewhere in the middle.

because you have no protection whatsoeverHuh, that's weird... I'm almost certain Section 2 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a thing that exists.
I disagree, Canada is still grossly right-wing... it just has a thin veneer of progressiveness.In any given federal election, anywhere from 60-80% of Canada's voters vote for the Liberal Party, the NDP, or the Bloc Quebecois, all of which are further left than America's Democrats.

Yes, freedom of expression is guaranteed by our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, but theres a pretty big loophole nobody mentions. The preamble to the Charter explicitly mentions that this freedom is subject to reasonable limits.
Theres also the other part of the Charter where provincial governments can steamroll any freedom they want, provided they publicly announce that theyre doing so.
This is all very different from the US, where you just have the First Amendment.
But in Canada, it means that you can get fined or even go to jail based on something you say. Say something on Twitter that wilfully promotes hatred and you could go to jail for two years.

Welcome to Canada. Stay quiet. (Remove space in po sted)

Only violent radicals or a certain group of people are allowed to protest in Canada.
uh oh, serious news guysYeah this is a really weird situation. Canada is usually pretty weak in these situations. But this does seem to be shaping up differently.

India assassinated one of their political opponents IN CANADA, and then expelled our diplomats from India.
Looks like we're goin' to war with India
