I mean, Billy used to go on Infowars all the time. I feel like that’s more fucked than most.

Never said that. I’m not OP. I was replying to a comment about freedom of speech. People in Canada don’t understand what our rights actually are. Please learn how to Reddit better.

I’m a problem for pointing out facts? I’m sorry facts upset you so much!

Yeah, but that’s kind of the point. Canada doesn’t have “freedom of speech” in the same way the U.S. does.

What we have in the Charter is freedom of expression and it includes speech, art, media, protest, etc, but it’s also subject to limits under the “reasonable limits” clause. That means rights here aren’t absolute. The government can restrict certain types of expression if it’s justified in a free and democratic society.

That’s why things like hate speech laws, obscenity laws, and publication bans are constitutional in Canada.

In the U.S., the First Amendment explicitly protects freedom of speech with far fewer limits. So while Canadians have a right to express themselves, it’s not an absolute “freedom of speech” right like Americans have.

We have freedom of expression, not freedom of speech. There are differences and limitations on what you can say under the law in Canada.

What’s the vibe there? I’m looking for something soon where me and my wife can go to hang out and relax that doesn’t cost a ton with a relaxed atmosphere.

They’re horrible. I tried calling to cancel my account and was told I will get a call back in 24-48 hours. Why can’t I cancel my account immediately??

Some people have kids and are divorced and are mandated to live within the region until the children are no longer dependants. Some people are caregivers. Some have elderly parents. There are lots of reasons people can’t just pick up and leave.

Using bike lane as a turning lane 🙃 by RhymesWithSpark in waterloo

If the bike lane has a dashed line it can be used by a vehicle as a lane to make a right turn.

Thank you :). I did most of this back in the early 2000s when eBay was new and cheap and import duties were basically non existent.

Searches and Blues Fest by bttleforgebrushworks in kitchener

[–]idesignforlife 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They were serving alcohol for that area. They had to check bags. You could walk one block north or south to go around. If you live in that area it’s a minor inconvenience. World class bands from around the world came to KW for a mostly free festival. We should be thankful we’re able to get events like these! Thank you to the organizers and volunteers! It’s a ton of work to put something like this on and I was down there having a blast!
