This sounds unprecedented to me. But encouraging news. Isn't the bar supposed to be an arm of the corporation of Canada?



"OTTAWA - The Conservative government's anti-terrorism bill contains "ill-considered" measures that will deprive Canadians of liberties without increasing their safety, the Canadian Bar Association says.

The bar association objects to the planned transformation of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service into an agency that could actively disrupt terror plots.

It argues the bill's "vague and overly broad language" would capture legitimate activity, including environmental and aboriginal protests — and possibly put a chill on expressions of dissent.


The most worrying element of the bill is a provision that would give judges the power to authorize CSIS violations of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the association says.

It potentially brings "the entire Charter into jeopardy, undermines the rule of law, and goes against the fundamental role of judges as the protectors of Canada's constitutional rights."

Well, the bar is associated with the city of London and the city of London appears to be moving to being onside with China.

Harper is associated with the western/cia/bush/war party, which seems to be headed own the road of totalitarianism, ie the set-up of Canada into being turned into the USA's coming fascist nightmare state.
