Free press in Canada

Published on June 9, 2008

Sean Parnell

A little bit off the mark for an organization like CCP that focuses on First Amendment political rights in the U.S., but Canada's Human Rights Commission last week held a hearing to determine whether publication by the magazine Maclean's violated the law by publishing excerpts from a book that was highly critical of Islam in the West.

Maclean's own correspondent live-blogged the hearing, providing an extremely interesting report to anyone with a commitment to free and unfettered political speech. I highly recommend this to anyone concerned that political speech is increasingly under attack.
