hate propaganda
In Canada, the Criminal Code hate propaganda law
provides protection to"identifiable groups" distinguished by
colour, race, religion, ethnic origin and sexual orientation. "Gender" is
not
included and so women and girls have no protection from hate
propaganda. The federal government refuses to amend the law to
include gender, although in 2003 it passed a Private Member's Bill (Bill
C-250) adding "sexual orientation". While this Bill was
going through public hearings and review, neither politicians in the
House of Commons nor members of the Senate amended the law to include
women. This section contains information relating to that
discriminatory and unconstitutional situation.
At the left is a picture of
misogynist rapper, Eminem, as he appeared on stage at Toronto's Sky
Dome, despite my efforts to have him prevented from performing.
Check out the Eminem section for more info on
this and other issues involving this performer.
(More on violent rap can be found in the Music section.)
