I created IronWillReport.com to fund our efforts at StrongAndFreeCanada.org. My wife and I launched that site in the summer of 2020 in response to government overreach and violations of our constitutional rights. Initially we ran that site entirely on donations (and you can still donate there), however we found that whenever the government dropped mandates, our donations dropped dramatically - to the point where we could not cover our expenses.

We needed a steady source of funding. Iron Will Report was established in the spring of 2022 to give those seeking truth in media and honest government something of value in return for supporting our ongoing efforts.

When you become a subscriber at Iron Will Report, you get the truth that mainstream media won't report, and that our government doesn't want you to hear, and you support our efforts at StrongAndFreeCanada.org to recover and defend our rights and freedoms.

The Thought Police are Coming: The Online Harms Bill
John Carpay

Our government, as usual, is up to no good.

In 2021 they tabled a bill for an Online Harms Act, which would have made ‘hate speech’ a crime in Canada. And their definition of hate speech was very broad and amounted to saying anything against the government narrative. To make sure of this, the bill called for creating the office of a Digital Safety Commissioner, essentially George Orwell’s Ministry of Truth from the dystopian novel 1984. But the bill didn’t get far. It passed a first reading before the House in November of 2021, then languished due to pushback from the public, rightly concerned that such a bill would be a violation of our Constitutional right to Freedom of Speech.

On February 21st, just a few weeks ago, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc announced, both verbally, and in writing, that there would be no Digital Safety Commissioner in Canada, and cited petitions from the public directed at the concerns already mentioned.

But then, just 5 days later, Trudeau’s government resurrected the Online Harms Act, Bill C-63, and it passed a first reading before the House on that same day, February 26th. It will soon receive a second reading before the House. Our government seems very determined to push this bill through.

Was Minister LeBlanc’s statement a case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand was doing? Possibly, but unlikely. Mr. LeBlanc is the Public Safety Minister. It would be his job to know about things like this. And he chose his words carefully when he announced there would be no Digital Safety Commissioner, because Bill C-63 calls for the formation of a Digital Safety Commission, not a Commissioner.

And the current Bill is even more draconian than the last. Not only would hate speech not be limited to written or spoken statements online, but could possibly include statements made orally, outside the internet. Furthermore, Bill C-63 would allow for complaints of ‘hate speech’ to be made anonymously, another violation of our right to face our accuser. Finally, the Bill would make intending to voice ‘hate speech’ a potential crime as well.

Orwellian, indeed. That’s the thought police.

A few days ago I received a very perceptive and extensive article on Bill C-63, written by John Carpay, the president of the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms. John has been defending our constitutional rights for over 15 years.

John joins me in the studio today to detail the threats to our constitutional rights and freedoms posed by this draconian Bill, but perhaps more importantly, what we can do about it.

    Another money grab by the federal government. Their pockets should be running over by now. Dirty dealing indeed!

    Dear Will Dove,
    We can’t wait 10,15, 20 years. There’s children to defend .We have to act now. In our current state of semi-Communism, we won’t have another chance.
    Hopefully, like what happened 2 -1/2 – 3 years ago, Judges will get so fed up, he/she will TOSS THE LOT OF THEM OUT!!
    I think so. More important things to do like catch, charge and convict child molesters and the like.
    Thank-you and God Bless you . <3 <3 <3 Rolonne Marie Ross
