Past winners have included such well-known freedom fighters as: Doug
Collins, Barbara Kulaszka, Ernst Zundel and Paul Fromm.
I have known Marc for more than twelve years. Few activists in our
ranks have been as dedicated and steadfast as he. Marc, like many
before him, is presently before yet another detested Canadian Human
Rights Tribunal, an arm of the Canadian Human Rights Commission, a
political, utterly shameless body of system apparatchiks who feed at
the taxpayers' trough.
Marc is the father of two young children and holds down a full time
job. He can only do so much raising money for the legal struggle
that is ever more fiercely raging in Canada, eroding further what
little freedom there is.
Every single document that is on Marc's website, www.freedomsite.org
, is held to be "hateful" by the Commission. That includes official
documents, even the Canadian Human Rights Commission's own! Every
single title is said to be "offensive" by hurting someone's feelings!
Marc is a fearless activist. He has won some substantial victories
already that many people predicted could not be won. For instance,
for the first time in Canadian history, he won a motion to have a
complaint laid under Section 13, the thoroughly odious "Hate Law"
paragraph, against the Freedomsite dismissed!
That victory means nothing to the purely politically and
ideologically motivated Canadian Human Rights Commission. They
trample all over the laws of the country under which they operate.
The battle for freedom of speech still continues, as the case against
Marc Lemire is still proceeding to the "Human Rights" Tribunal, a
quasi-judicial body where anything goes - and by "anything" we mean,
anything against freedom-loving Canadians!
The Tribunal is a blight on the Canadian legal system, as previous
rulings have shown -- where truth is no defence, intent is no
defence, hearsay evidence can be accepted! And the fine, if Marc
should lose, can be as high as $50,000!
As you can see, it takes stamina to fight these sharks in pin-striped
suits, and Marc Lemire is willing to take enormous risks to gain back
the freedom the censorship sharks are trying to destroy.
Marc's struggle is a worthy one. If you can help, please go to
