CCF

They waited until the last day—but the gov will be seeking an appeal at the Supreme Court. We are ready and eager to defend our victory that found the Emergencies Act was used unlawfully and the regulations were unconstitutional. theccf.ca/carney-asks-sc…

TODAY: a major test for free expression in the digital age. The CCF appears this morning at the Supreme Court in a case about Canadians' right to post honest online reviews without facing "SLAPP" lawsuits meant to silence criticism. theccf.ca/ccf-intervenes…

Canadians are waking up to C-22's risks. Two main problems: 1. Could allow for backdoors into encrypted services (eg: Signal) 2. Could require telecoms to collect up to 1 year of location data on all of us Read more: theccf.ca/bill-c-22-expl… Sign here: theccf.ca/stop-governmen…

We discuss this debacle on today's episode of our podcast, Not Reserving Judgment. I respect and like Jason, but this isn't criminal fraud. It is unlikely its civil fraud either (although I suppose they could try). I expect there were contracts and releases signed that were lawyered favourably for CBC, and the damages would be hard to prove (as I understand it, the victims here were paid, so the damages would be emotional and reputation). The best bet is probably looking at the contracts for a breach of term. But then again, I assume the contracts are drafted to avoid that. Willing to be corrected by someone who practices in civil or criminal fraud, this just is my high level take. And absolutely gross behaviour by CBC and sure doesn't sound like a very funny "comedy".

This week on the podcast, we explain why Kelowna can move ahead with its petition to rein in Freedom Rally protesters, and we discuss an Edmonton Police pilot project using bodycams and facial recognition software. youtube.com/watch?v=QJ6tcB…

Were you at CSFN this past weekend? It is one of my favourite events of the year. I love meeting other people who care about individual responsibilities, limited government, and building a freer society. Check out my highlights from this year!

Come and stop by the @CDNConstFound booth at the #CSFN2026 conference to say hi to the team!

Another thought-provoking discussion at CSFN 2026. @JoshDehaas moderated an insightful panel on getting back to basics in addressing crime and restoring confidence in the justice system.

Special episode from our nation's capital! This week on the (slightly awkward) podcast, we tell you what conservatives and libertarians are clashing over at the Canada Strong and Free conference in Ottawa. Plus, our latest victory on the free speech front. youtube.com/watch?v=6IYzin…

A fun first day at CSFN 2026! Enjoyed meeting so many attendees at the CCF booth today, including Mr. Barry Neufeld.

The @CDNConstFound warns Bill C-22 could turn Canada into a "surveillance state" by requiring telecom giants to store Canadians' data and location metadata for up to a year. "Proactively collecting all that… goes too far in trying to prevent crime," @JoshDehaas told Juno News.

Our Interim Executive Director @cvangeyn kicking off Canada Strong and Free Network 2026 with a timely panel on secularism and the limits of religious freedom. (Constitutional debates can be pretty lively – even at 10 AM!)

I'm at the Canada Strong and Free conference in Ottawa. Stop by the @CDNConstFound booth where I have copies of my latest book, about the Notwithstanding Clause. If you make a donation of any amount at theCCF.ca I will give you a signed copy of the book!

SUCCESS: the restrictive by-law in South Bruce Peninsula has been repealed.

In Wiarton, ON today expecting that the Town of South Bruce Peninsula will indeed repeal their unconstitutional bylaw. South Bruce was last year’s runner-up for the “Municipal Muzzle” award. This would be an important win for freedom of expression in Canada.

New warning from Josh Dehaas: Canada is on the verge of repeating Australia's online censorship debacle as Culture Minister Marc Miller signals intention to regulate not just kids' social media use... but ordinary adults on the internet. nationalpost.com/opinion/josh-d…

I'm in Edmonton to attend this year's Civitas conference. Last night I had an Edmonton meet and greet where I met an awesome group of @CDNConstFound supporters. If you want to come to our next meet up sign up for our email list so you get the invite! theccf.ca/freedomupdates/

Today, the Supreme Court ruled MPs CAN face jail time for speaking about national security matters. While the majority upheld the Trudeau-era law, a strong dissent warned it gives too much power to the executive and threatens Parliament's independence. theccf.ca/scc-upholds-tr…

Now more than ever, Canadians are asking where the right to free speech begins and ends in our legal system. The CCF's new Free Speech FAQ answers the most common questions about free expression in Canada. Get it free and understand your rights. theccf.ca/learn/free-spe…

On this week's podcast, we discuss whether the University of Lethbridge's banishment of Professor Frances Widdowson violated the right to freedom of expression, and we tell you about a Nova Scotia law that bans naming kids who died in care. youtube.com/watch?v=zIzotU…
