Use Their Weapon

The Canadian "human rights" "courts" that have ruined Canadians with shallower pockets have let Mark Steyn off for his supposed "Islamophobia."

Steyn has offered to help pay for the last plaintiff's appeal:

I sympathize with the Canadian Islamic Congress, whose mouthpiece feels that, if the British Columbia pseudo-judges had applied the logic of previous decisions, we'd have been found guilty. He's right: Under the ludicrous British Columbia "Human Rights" Code, we are guilty. Which is why the Canadian Islamic Congress should appeal, and why I offered on the radio an hour ago to chip in a thousand bucks towards their costs.


Steyn is right that this sham of a process should bo before a real Canadian court. The Canadians need to get rid of these ridiculous commissions that bankrupt little guys who run afoul of political correctness.

But if the plaintiff's won't appeal to go after Steyn, why can't Steyn become a plaintiff? I wrote back in June:

Given that the Sock Puppets and the greatest legal mind since My Cousin Vinnie entered a court room filed this suit in the name of all Moslems, isn't their assault on Canadian traditions of freedom of speech an act that "might cause hatred or contempt" toward Moslems?

If Steyn is acquitted, he should file suit against the Sock Puppets in the name of all Canadian Moslems in all of the provincial and national human rights tribunals. One way or another, a real court should finally see what their parliaments have inflicted on the still-free nation of Canada.


Come on Steyn, file suit. If, God forbid, you win, you nail them with their own weapon; and if you lose you may wreck that weapon for good.
