Canadian Human Rights Section 13 Complaints
Former Prime Minister of Canada, Stephen Harper, rescinded s. 13(1) of the Canadian Human Rights Act in 2013. S. 13(1) was one of the most important pieces of legislation to prevent hate groups from using the internet to promote racism and hate and recruit young people into hate groups. Stephen Harper, in his early career as a right-wing politicians, was a member of the Norther Foundation. The Foundation was a far right group based in Canada with connections to Paul Fromm, a school teacher dismissed for his connections and work with the far right in Canad and internationally, and Wolfgang Droege, a founder of the far right Heritage Front. www.stopracism.ca is in the process of researching and publishing the convergence of the far right and mainstream political parties and politicians in Canada along with research on understanding hate groups and modern day fascism.
We are lobbying for the return of S. 13(1), or something like it. We have been requested to make suggestions on use and law by a task force of the Canadian Human Rights Commission. We will announce our proposal for your support on this website shortly.
