Hey friend, I fully agree with your stance. I was going through the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms and was actually surprised by how much is permitted. I always thought that Canada’s freedom of expression laws were more restrictive than other places- as I have heard of people (non-Canadians) being banned from the country based on their conduct.
Specifically, falsehoods are protected "Being content-neutral, the Charter also protects the expression of both truths and falsehoods (Canada (Attorney General) v. JTI-Macdonald Corp., [2007] 2 S.C.R. 610 "
So that was disappointing. Also, there have been similar cases in the past with homophobic flyers that were deemed legal because the content did not meet the threshold to be considered hate speech.
I wonder whether it would be permissible to distribute flyers that say “stop cancer treatment for children! God doesn’t make mistakes!” Borrowing the verbiage from the flyers in the article.
I’m feeling very disappointed at the moment. I don’t disagree with the mom’s actions at all. The content was fundementally abhorrent to her beliefs (and science).
Y’all I just fell down a rabbit hole. I understood that Canada has a limited right to expression- meaning hate speech is prohibited, and checked the New Brunswick’s human rights act- gender expression and gender identity are protected classes.
BUT it seems really similar to this case: https://decisions.scc-csc.ca/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/12876/index.do where the court ruled that the material was not hateful enough to be hate speech? I wonder if the best thing to do is make their own (better) flyers promoting love. It’s unfortunate- falsehoods are actually protected under freedom of expression.
I can’t imagine how devastating it must be for that mother to have to handle and disperse materials that challenge her daughter’s right to exist and live in a way that makes her feel safe. I understand the importance of freedom of expression rules, but I have a feeling that if these flyers were going out saying that children with other medical conditions shouldn’t be receiving care, or children with disabilities shouldn’t receive accomodation in the classroom, there would be more of an uproar. It’s so sad that one group of children seems to be an acceptable target.
I’m so distracted by your adorable salad tongs!
Hey- thank you for this. I apologize and thank you for the call out. It sounded so fantastical that I completely distanced myself from the fact that these are real children being taken advantage of and used for evil.
This is super interesting. Do you have any more information about these child assassins? Like an article to read? Or an anime I can watch?
I think they were around for over a decade. Like 4 chan anonymous guy Fawkes mask loose collective

Tough question! I see people have already mentioned Space Mutiny and Manos. So I’ll go with Werewolf.
They sleep nose to anus, like a coyote.
I’m pretty sure that’s the joke he was making
My husband is Greek on his mom’s side and Italian on his dad’s. He can’t stand olives. Don’t worry- you’re not alone.
Lol I’m leaving it
Tell me you don’t like olives without telling me you don’t look olives.
This reminds me of pizzas I’ve had from hole in the wall mom and pop pizza shops. I would crush this pizza.
I’m glad you got to a point where you stopped (and good for you for looking after yourself and straightening your teeth). It’s wild that the habit pathways we build in our brain are so ingrained that even after such an unpleasant consequence we keep going, even without a chemical dependency.
Do you still bite your nails after that? Not judging, genuinely curious.

I didn’t even know about the pouch stuff, I thought you were saying his weird lumpy anatomy and I thought yeah that tracks.
