Blame Canada! Blame Canada! You know that everything’s gone wrong since Canada came along! — South Park, The Movie

On September 16, 2026, the Ontario Superior Court Justice Ann Molloy convicted a Christian activist named Bill Whatcott of “willful promotion of hatred.”

What did Bill do that was so hateful? With five fellow Christians, he dressed up as a gay zombie, complete with a green skin suit and tutu, then he passed out gospel tracts disguised as condom packages to the 2016 Toronto Pride parade attendees: a silly practical joke to share the Good News. For 10 years, the Canadian government has pursued and persecuted Whatcott, believing that his little evangelical escapade was a greater affront to Canadian society than, say, homeless vagrants defecating on major city streets, the destructive spread of fentanyl, or the rise of other serious crimes. In 2024, the Toronto Police Chief advised residents to leave their car keys on their front porches to avoid harm or death in the face of the city’s epidemic of car theft.

In Canada, passing out Gospel tracts is the heinous crime that must be stamped out. Yes, you can go to jail for so-called “hate speech” in Canada, too. They don’t have freedom of speech in the Great White North, despite all their supposed claims and celebrations about a Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Those mere parchment guarantees guarantee nothing for the average Canadian citizen. For Christians, even less. Even Holocaust deniers have gone to jail in Canada, as well as critics of Islam. A Saskatchewan man went to jail for willful promotion of hatred against an unidentified identity group! No matter how vile or disconcerting someone’s speech may be, the proper remedy is more speech. For Canada, the answer is a jail cell, a complete violation of natural law........
