Marc Lemire’s Constitutional Challenge

of Internet Censorship and Repression Continues

June 25-27, 2007 – Oakville

Oakville, Ontario

The Canadian Human Rights Commission (CHRC) are attempting to have a fine issued and a LIFETIME speech ban placed on Internet webmaster Marc Lemire for content placed onto his website – The Freedomsite. The CHRC and Richard Warman allege a violation of Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act, Canada’s notorious internet censorship legislation, which has so far ensnared 100 victims and raked in close to $100,000 in fines.

This is a classic freedom of speech case, as none of the complained of material, is a single word that Mr. Lemire has said or written, but rather mostly revolves around a public Internet message board, hosted on the Freedomsite, where any internet user could debate and join virtual conversations on a variety of topics.

As part of Marc Lemire’s vigorous defence to these allegations, he has launched a Constitutional challenge of the Canadian Human Rights Act, specifically Section 13 and 54.

The Canadian Human Rights Commission have now been put on trial!

There has already been over a month and a half of hearings into this case, spanning 22 hearing days across three cities and included history making testimony from numerous world-renowned expert witnesses called by the defence. The Lemire Defence Team is headed up by courageous Section 13 expert and lawyer, Barbara Kulaszka who, with amazingly in-depth research spanning over 20 years, has thoroughly exposed this law to be politically motivated and a clear violation of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Canadian Bill of Rights.

At the beginning of the hearing, Barbara Kulaszka successfully argued and received from the Tribunal, three subpoenas against employees of the Canadian Human Rights Commission. This is the first time in a Section 13 case that a subpoena has ever been issued. The CHRC is in complete disarray over the Constitutional Challenge. It appears the complainant, Richard Warman has largely abandoned the case (Warman left in the middle of the second week of hearings, and has never returned). The CHRC’s counsel has claimed he has no “mental serenity” and apparently withdrawn from the case. The CHRC has now hired outside legal counsel to represent them, which will cost taxpayers a small fortune.

On the first day of the Marc Lemire hearing, those seeking to uphold Internet censorship basically laughed at the defence team. After 22 hearing days, nine witnesses, dozens of Section 37 invocations, four exposed infiltrators, numerous motions won and over 2,000 pages of documents submitted by the defence - they are NOT laughing any longer!

Damn, I wish I could go. Have we got anyone out there who can cover this?

[Tomasz Winnicki]

Damn it Alex! Why do you quote the whole post if you're the very first one to reply I mean... it's right there... anyway... Yes, Paul Fromm and Marc himself will be taking good notes, I'm sure. Paul will very likely post a synopsis on StormFront soon after the hearings end. Maybe even I shall decide to show up. I'll PM you their e-mails so you can invite them as guests to GoyFire or Free Talk Live.


I'd just like to add a...

... BIG F*** YOU!!!

to all Canadian mainstream media for not covering Marc's case. This story is of such monumental importance that it should be front page news every day that the hearings resume. Marc's case is being silenced for exactly the same reasons that the tortures, rapes and murders of Channon Christian and Chris Newsom were suppressed. (I've read that the Canadian parliament banned the use of the word "suppress" in the house of commons.)

Thanks for this update, Mr. Winnicki. Please don't think that, because we (in the US) can't do much besides send a few bucks, we aren't very interested in these developments. Hell, I wish we could get our "human rights" yeshivas in court to face such excellent witnesses.

[Tomasz Winnicki]

Marc's most recent update:

History will be made in Oakville tomorrow for the most anticipated witness subpoenaed by the victim - Marc Lemire.

Harvey Goldberg is the man behind section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act – Canada’s internet censorship tool.

The Canadian Human Rights Commission is falling apart around the seams. They are in total disarray due to the Marc Lemire case. As of a few weeks ago, they have hired outside counsel from Toronto to represent the CHRC. Former CHRC Chief Persecutor Giacomo Vigna is off finding his “mental serenity” somewhere.

There is no question - WE ARE BEATING THEM!

For the first time ever, Goldberg will face tough questions from the two most respected and freedom oriented Lawyers in Canada, Barbara Kulaszka and the Battling Barrister from Victoria - Douglas Christie.

Be there and witness the downfall of this disgusting law! We need your support.

Update from Marc (Sunday, December 26, 2010).




On Christmas eve, we finally received an order of the Federal Court of Canada, which accepted the intervention applications of:

* Canadian Free Speech League
* Canadian Association for Free Expression
* African-Canadian Legal Clinic

Who knows what took the Federal Court close to 3 months to render this tiny decision, but with luck the case will start moving forward at a faster pace, and we can have a spring hearing into the Constitutionality of the censorship provision - Section 13 (1) and 54 of the of the Canadian Human Rights Act.

The court has referred this case to the Chief Justice, which will do "case management" on it. Apparently, this is a good thing with so many parties, and will move the case forward to a hearing.

Everything is now set, all the arguments have been made, and soon it will be up to the Federal Court of Canada to make a ruling agreeing with the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal, and wipe this censorship provision off the legal books and remove the speech noose many Canadians suffer under.

The battle lines are set.

Supporting freedom of speech, and an end to the fanatical speech control of Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.

·Marc Lemire
·British Columbia Civil Liberties Association
·Canadian Civil Liberties Association
·Canadian Free Speech League
·Canadian Association for Free Expression

Seeking to uphold Section 13:

·Canadian Human Rights Commission
·Richard Warman
·Canadian Jewish Congress
·B’nai Brith Canada
·Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre
·African-Canadian Legal Clinic


Please stay tuned on the Freedomsite, for more updates and upcoming court information.
