Key Human Rights Hearing Tuesday – Mark Lemire

Posted on March 24, 2008 by Bene Diction

There is a significant Human Rights Tribual tomorrow in Ottawa. Dr. Dawg and BigCityLib have more.

Warren Kinsella will be there to watch. has more.

Good background at The National Post: Scrutinizing the human rights machine.

…one of Canada’s most prominent white supremacist propagandists, backed by the legal team that defended Holocaust-denier Ernst Zundel, will put the country’s entire human rights bureaucracy on the witness stand.

After months of closed-door wrangling, a constitutional challenge, an appeal to federal court and a blizzard of legal motions, Marc Lemire can now interrogate, under oath, two investigators of the Canadian Human Rights Commission about why they posted provocative comments on his and other ultra-conservative Web sites. Much credibility hangs on their answers.

    Don’t normally like to credit the Post, but that was a fairly even-handed piece.

    I won’t be there, actually. I have to work, in Toronto.

    And, even if I could, I doubt I would attend.

    I am interested in documenting Mark Steyn’s fondness for the Heritage Fron’t Marc Lemire, however.

    Best,

    W

    Warren, thanks. Fixed.

    BCL, even poor media outlets can employ good writers and vice versa. I thought it summed up clearly for those of us who don’t follow CHRT closely.:^)
