Tax was talking about censorship. You were responding to him about censorship not being a thing because it hasn’t happened yet. It’s in the wind. Let’s see which way the wind blows.
Your interpretation of C-11 & C-18 are not necessarily the same as others. Time will tell what is smokescreen and what is not. Some of it may be about big tech, and some of it may be about making things like exposing SNC-Lavalin misinformation or disinformation….& thus publishable. Let’s see what the CRTC does with this new found powers, along with the current and future governments.

….I'm thinking of the globull warming truthers, maskers, and the race baiters, that are “demanding criminal sanctions for anyone questioning their version of truth.”
And that’s what I was relating to.…As for your "the globull warming truthers, maskers, and the race baiters, that are demanding criminal sanctions for anyone questioning their version of truth." you do have proof, I suppose, that these people are taking over and making it a criminal offence to question theories or positions on a subject?
Let’s watch and wait and see. The push to bring in a new online censorship law is an attempt to offload the individual responsibility of citizens to evaluate what they see on the internet and place it on the government. Sure, the legislation is being informed by consultations, but the results are politically guided and too vague to be useful….so why bother then? There’s already laws for hate speech, so it’s not that, & already laws for other crimes (online or not) so it’s not that….Last I checked, you can still deny global warming, still refuse masks and, well... the race thing is complicated. You'd have to clarify what you mean by race baiters.
