Human Rights assailed by the creeping right
(Canscene) — December 10 marked the 61st anniversary of the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is ominous that the observance still upsets so many right wing Canadians
For instance part ot Tim Hudak’s recent and successful campaign to lead Ontario’s Progressive Conservative opposition was a promise if elected premier, to disband Ontario’s Human Rights Commission. This echoes former Reform Party leader Preston Manning who stated publicly in my presence that if elected Prime Minister he’d rescind the Multiculturalism Act and if necessary deconstruct Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
And what about the Wildrose Alliance Party? Evidence that Harper’s Conservatives are being challenged in their own territory because they’re too far left.
On guard, Canadians!
