The Libertarian Party of Canada remains committed to ‪#‎KillBillC51‬ and supports CCLA and CJFE in their court challenge.

“Bill C-51 is a grave threat to our rights in Canada. It will lead to censorship and a massive chill on free expression, and enables a potentially widespread abuse of power,” said Tom Henheffer, Executive Director of CJFE. “It unjustifiably infringes on the rights of all Canadians without making our country any more secure, and must be struck down.”

Fuel to Flames: 2 Weeks and We Leave Klanata

The other day I was randomly informed of a fact I should already be aware of...I'm driving us down south in two weeks, and from this, I could use your support by sharing, talking about, or donating to this fundraising campaign I've launched to help with travel funds, for food, for gasoline, for emergencies that may arise, because capitalism is in every part of my life, I'm trying to work a system where I don't utilize money constantly. With traveling, however, concepts of cash are almost essential to get somewhere, to get anywhere, even to leave the island I need money to pay a ferry company just to let me leave. Which is strange because I'm Native, and coastal, and my cedar dugout canoe has in essence become my car. Anyway, the goal behind the film series I wish to become reality is to investigate Native peoples taking back their respected homelands, and also, what that looks like from their eyes, and not mine. My ancestors always explored their territories and other territories as well, and when they met the new shores they did so with grace, protocol, gifts, dances, drumming, feasting, I'm hoping to take all of that with me as we prepare ourselves to be leaving one oppressive state, and learn how my extended family south of medicine line are surpassing an oppressive regime and working to decolonize every aspect of how western society skewers the image of the Americanized Indian... So if you can, please take a moment to check out this link, and help support an Indigenous filmmaker seeking the truth through the lens: https://www.gofundme.com/LBfilms

https://KillC51.ca #KillBillC51 Im beginning to really hate my Government. Forcing through a Dangerous Bill like this. We have rights and they are playing and people's fears. I don't see how making us one step closer to a police state helps keeps us safe.

How does a law protect the rights and freedoms of Canadians, when it seriously violates our rights, freedoms, and privacy?

#BillC51 Rally #bdnmb Defend Democracy Now! Not only does this bill create a discretionary police unit that can basically do and enforce anything they want in regards to #terrorism, there are many concerns, especially for Indigenous communities who exercise their right to mobilize and the devastating effects and tactics used if such communities were labeled terrorists. How far will this militaristic police force go? And how long will they be able to take precedent over our rights and freedoms?!! #IAmNotATerrorist #KillBillC51 #cdnpoli

excerpt:

“Trudeau agreed to speak with us and answer a few questions...We asked him about his stance on Bill-C51.Trudeau supports Bill-C51 and he says he won't change his stance because it will protect us from terrorism. 

I asked him what his definition of "terrorism" was and how he would amend this bill because I am a MOTHER, I am a PROTECTOR. I stand up and speak out for those who can not speak for themselves. I speak out against the destruction of our mother earth I am here to protect my daughter's future. I want my daughter to have clean water to drink. 

If this bill gets passed then anyone like myself could be labelled a terrorist. I don't want to be called a terrorist because I speak out against the devastation of the tar sands or when I speak out against systemic racism & the ongoing genocide of Indigenous peoples. We are here in solidarity with all land defenders because LAND DEFENDERS DEFEND LIVES

I am NOT a Terrorist #KillBillC51
