With so much of our personal lives being recorded, judged and put on display, we’ve lost the very thing that defines civilization: privacy. With real life implications to virtual actions, via punitive regimes such as the Chinese Social Credit System, the Common Identity Repository, and Silicon Valley itself, how can we protect ourselves from being de-personed?
Join Danielle and Robert as they discuss the implications of Big Brother in both its political and corporate forms.
Guilt by association is a smear tactic used by Justin Trudeau, his Liberal Party of Canada, and his loyal Canadian media. The latest attack is against Conservative Party Leader, Andrew Scheer in the June issue of MacLean’s which tried to associate him with supposed “white supremacists.”
If one were to examine Trudeau and his Liberals and use the same guilt by association attack one would find more than alleged “white supremacists.” One would find terrorists, convicted attempted assassins, and yes, even white supremacists – real Nazis.
Salim Mansur, Professor Emeritus at Western University and Just Right Media contributor, suggests that Canada deserves better than such low-handed mud slinging and demonstrates that people who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

Taking a break from the heavy political issues they usually take on, Danielle and Robert talk about some of their all-time favorite movie picks.
From 1979 German cinema, to Japanese anime, to the latest Star Wars installment they give their thumbs up or their raspberries to both the classics and the stinkers.
“Dangerous” – Paul Joseph Watson, Milo, Laura Loomer, and Alex Jones (again) are some of the latest victims of the big tech purge of “far-right” voices. Facebook and its sister site Instagram deleted their accounts in a coordinated hit, ironically on the eve of Press Freedom Day. What were they guilty of? Of being “dangerous.”
Voices that do not adhere to the current orthodoxy are increasingly being silenced. Big tech companies are clinging to the blurred lines between platform and publisher in order to have their cake and eat it too.
Join Danielle and Robert as they discuss the ramifications of the current state of internet censorship.

Comments Off on Compelled speech at the Law Society of Ontario – An interview with Bruce Pardy and Lisa Bildy
May092019
All lawyers and paralegals play a vital role in Accelerating Culture Shift, one of 5 strategies adopted by the Law Society to address the barriers faced by racialized licensees.
As part of this strategy you are required to create and abide by an individual Statement of Principles that acknowledges your obligation to promote equality, diversity and inclusion generally, and in your behaviour towards colleagues, employees, clients and the public.
This was the direction from the Law Society of Ontario to its membership in 2017. The obvious political ideology at play here offended many Ontario lawyers and some of them banded together to create “StopSOP” (Stop the Statement of Principles).
In April 2019 they fielded a slate of 22 Bencher candidates who stood for election to the society’s Convocation with the entire slate being elected.
Leading the revolt against compelled speech and in favour of non-partisan lawyers were Law Society members Lisa Bildy, StopSOP Campaign Chair and Bruce Pardy professor of law at Queen’s University.
Robert Vaughan interviewed Bruce and Lisa while attending the Society For Academic Freedom and Scholarship’s AGM at Western University in London, Ontario.
Salim Mansur, Professor Emeritus at Western University, is currently campaigning to become the Conservative candidate in the riding of London North Centre and in this presentation he responds to a letter he received from a citizen in that riding on questions of migration, immigration, and multiculturalism.
Salim, has been a frequent contributor to Just Right Media.
