This man was jailed for 18 months, for simply demanding that politicians answer his questions about Canada's excessive immigration policy etc. This man was a political prisoner, and stands as an example of how citizens are now being treated in Canada. Free speech and expression has been stripped from all citizens, especially those of European ancestory.Costaricagringohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07672422077861461075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868134549354672411.post-44571589427167644372012-07-09T19:06:37.503-07:002012-07-09T19:06:37.503-07:00Your a real piece of work you know that.

This has given us Alexander, Napoleon and Hitler. <br /><br />And what police state lovers also fail to mention is how many millions of people had to pay with their lives for following the folly of these 'glorious leaders'.<br /><br />Is Canada becoming a Police State? Those in power are obviously desperately trying, unfortunately for them, people are better informed than they ever were and won't be so easily fooled.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868134549354672411.post-16958885734265937022012-05-12T02:25:44.814-07:002012-05-12T02:25:44.814-07:00Thank goodness people like you don't make the ...Thank goodness people like you don't make the laws in Canada! Your diatribe seems to end by saying that police, in your mind, have the right to treat any suspect as a criminal, which smacks of a sentiment summed up as "guilty until proven innocent." Your points aren't excellent at all, in my opinion, and are rather superficial. I appreciate your right to say what you like, but I find it quite unfortunate that your opinions aren't, or at least don't seem, better thought out. Perhaps if you were the victim of excessive use of police force you would change your tune.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868134549354672411.post-59507607612141058922011-10-02T16:34:26.872-07:002011-10-02T16:34:26.872-07:00Excellent points made here, Naamloos.
