RALLY TO SUPPORT EMO MAYOR MCQUAKER & COUNCIL VICTIM OF THE ONTARIO HUMAN RIGHTS TRIBUNAL

TORONTO, WEDNESDAY, December 18, 2024. Supporters of free speech ranging in age from 18 to 88, gathered on this rainy afternoon outside the offices of the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal. There was an ominous police presence

The rally, organized by the Canadian Association for Free Expression (CAFE) was to support Emo, Ontario Mayor Harold McQuaker and the Emo town council victimized by a recent ruling of the tribunal. Their crime? They failed to proclaim Gay Pride Month and raise the rainbow flag. [The town doesn’t even have a flagpole!]. The mayor rightly noted that the town hasn’t proclaimed Straight Pride Month either.

For their common sense position, reflecting the will of their voters, the mayor was fined $5,000, the town $10,000 and the Mayor is to attend some Maoist political re-education training. The Mayor has refused to pay or to attend such demeaning propaganda. However, the complainant Borderland Pride has managed to loot the money out of his account.

CAFE has warned for decades that human rights commissions are mortal enemies of free speech and independent thought. The Tribunal went further, trying to compel speech the victims do not believe in.

Mayor Harold McQuaker is a free speech hero. He should get the Order of Canada for standing up to minority tyranny.

On the same day, the Emo Town Council filed an application for Judicial Review (appeal) of the Tribunal decision.
