20. The protestors have the right to free speech as well as anyone else.

Do you object to anti-war signs and demonstrations? If I remember correctly, many were arrested for wearing certain T-shirts, carrying certain signs .................. the author was wrong, Canada doesn't need to look south for anything. We have a law that common-sensically says inciting hatred against groups of people is illegal. Anyone that intends on doing that should probably think twice ............ of they may get (gasp!!!!) a fine and maybe a little community service. Talk about making mountains out of molehills. Her visit was co-sponsored by the Claire Boothe Luce Instititute, an American conservative org. Maybe they need to look south, instead of north, where we're very tolerant ............... just not for the hate that harms those who may be different.
