There's no way that will withstand the court case thats coming. It was a worship service. They were singing songs, not talking about US political viewpoints. The press is making a mountain out of a molehill for the clicks but there's no way anyone needs a permit to sing songs in a church. Just yellow journalism.
To quote someone else on this: "He is not forcing the stop to alternate relationships, he is not forcing the take over of Canada. He is expressing his beliefs like the LGBT community express their beliefs during Pride Parades." Or Black Lives Matter believing stopping traffic and forcing stores to close will support their cause. Hell, we didnt even stop the pro Palestian protester who was screaming "Death to Canada!" We don't stop those people, so why should anyone think we should stop this guy?
Just because somebody says something I find disagreeable is not a justification for silencing that person. I can argue with them, I could ignore them, I can encourage people to have nothing to do with them, but I don't have a right to silence them. This is Canada, we still support free speech. Unless of course you belong to a certain minority group that would rather throw smoke bombs in churches in an act of hatred while hypocritically proclaiming that they are protesting hatred. Pretty pathetic.
Hopefully we see more of that, bigotry and retrograde-minded religious doctrines that diminishes the rights of others because of their gender or sexual orientation are not welcome in Canada. And free speech is not without limits.
So you approve of violence against people you disagree with philosophically? Alrighty then. Thats a good way to start a civil war but that's not how Canadians solve differences.
The tolerance of intolerance has really worked out for Western society.
Dude never said anything about violence, but you're putting words into his mouth. Christianity is a very hateful and close-minded religion, especially the Maga sect of it. I feel sadness for those stuck in that cult following, and defending it online, like yourself.
Christianity thinks slavery, rape and stoning, is allowed through the word of god. It's a horrible religion and their god is a special kind of monster.
Conservatism and bad faith arguments go hand in hand.
Ruining the day of bigots is absolutely fine with me.
Sorry. In this case you're wrong.
This wasn't a regular service, with the regular church patrons, and the regular hymn book. This was a special musical concert, from a guy on a musical tour of Canada.
At this point the church is no longer a church but a rented hall for the purpose of holding a musical concert.
In Montreal, you need a permit for that AND the city recommends you submit your application 90 days in advance of the concert date - which they did not do.
You’re probably a bot based on account age, username, and post history, but if you do “LoveCanada” perhaps you should love your fellow humans instead of supporting hate speech. Also please familiarize yourself with Canadian law regarding speech and protected groups. This is not the US.
Im not a bot and Im from western Canada, Im quite familiar with "hate" speech laws. Please show me what he said at that church that was "hate" speech?
Alberta?
Alberta? Bot? Sometimes lines just get blurred.
Somewhere between Vancouver and Winnipeg lol
So Alberta; but you're to chickenshit to say.
I don't want some hateful wolf in sheep's clothing to perform here but dammit, what you say is true.
Yeah that is some mumbo jumbo.
