yes, Canada has gotten progressively worse over the years. incriminating innocent people over something as minor as a fucking pro noun is a far over reach of government power.
no group should receive special treatment, no religious group, no sexual orientation group, no skin color group. look at the case that went on for THREE YEARS over 2 boys who were hit with "wrong racial label law" in AUS, 3 years of their life GONE over IDENTITY POLITICS.
"Judaism is I feel like it and I'm fine. I won't be charged for criticizing that religion"
mean while in places like AUS, Germany, and UK criticizing a religion ( islam) can have you arrested and fined massively.
"There is nothing in Bill C-16 giving more teeth against anti-trans speech than against anti-religious speech."
it also exclusively states that you must IDENTIFY THEM BASED ON THEIR GENDER EXPRESSION, if you d not you're considered having committed a hate crime. genders like ECO gender, GENDER FLUID, a man who claims he is a woman YOU MUST conform and change your speech to PLEASE THEM or else you're going to PRISON. this is absolutely filthy, this is authoritarian ideals at work.
"On another hand, the bill does say if you now incites the killing of every trans out there you could be criminally charged"
there is a difference between SPEECH and A CALL TO ACTION if you claim you're going to kill gays or tell others to that is a call to action. if you claim you disagree with them and will not refer to them as a made up gender YOU are considered to have done the same thing.
nothing but non-thought out arguments from you, half backed and easily refuted. seriously READ THE BILL

excuse me? i don't differentiate? have you seen what you're replying with, massive logical fallacies and straw man arguments that hold no value to the original topic.
"but in the real world they aren't."
wrong, Mr Perterson is not only going to lose his job but may also face jail time / fines for NOT USING the pronoun one student DEMANDED that he say.
the issue with this written legislation is that it does not differentiate between a call to action and free speech, in fact they don't even mention it. the legislation is entirely up to the DEFENDANT to categorize. JUST like the 2 boys in AUS whom were also accused of something similar (race instead) for 3 fucking years they were on trial... 3 years.... over someone being "offended"
"not about how you imagine it could be enforced in your distopian imaginary world."
the issue is laws are being enforced like this, not just in Canada but places like AUS, UK, and Germany as well. i have offered you examples as well.
your entire argument has been refuted, you lack logic and facts, you purely push an argument by using straw man arguments and logical fallacies.
take your own advice and start trying to distinguish between your Utopian, illogical, ignorantly, inept world view and the real world. don't worry i'm here to help you with facts and logic, after all its my job to educate the ignorantly inept such as yourself

"Again I shall ask, why can't I own a nuclear weapon?"
i have debunked this point multiple times already, i am not going to keep replying to something i have confronted multiple times.
"If you want to stick with your argument that it's because using a nuclear weapon would have dire consequences"
this was never my argument, i merely stated the idea of jumping from personal arms to nuclear weapons clearly requires a level of cognitive dissonance not yet seen.
"then I agree that it's a good reason, but that has nothing to do with how the second amendment was written."
the right to bear arms, its exclusively set apart and supported by personal letters by the founding fathers that automatic and semi automatic weapons were included in ARMS. trying to make a false equivalency to a weapon that cannot even be carried, operated alone, or used for personal defense is a pathetic and illogical argument.
"That's a reinterpretation, it's treating the constitution like a "living document"."
the issue is your position is lacking harmony and logic, its inconsistent. the living document was written WITH THE INTENTION OF THE 2ND AMENDMENT BEING USED FOR AUTOMATIC AND SEMI-AUTO WEAPONS, not single shot muskets. we regulate fire arms already being un-able to own automatic weapons, weapons of mass destruction, and of course nation weapons (like nukes)
your position is just inconstant and fallacious.

no, i am not saying you want to ban all guns, but as history has shown (like in the UK and AUS, and soon Canada) the events are repetitious 1st limit what kind of guns, 2nd restrict munitions, 3rd use media to push anti-gun propaganda, 4th ban guns (like the mandatory buy back in AUS). once you give up a right YOU DON'T GET IT BACK. not sure how many times we must repeat history before we understand that. right now we ban certain magazines, automatic weapons, and mass destruction weapons. if we keep going there will be nothing left.
also i am from Luxembourg but i currently live in the US. where i am from guns are banned, what the media does not tell you is that 75% of all gun crime is committed by ILLEGAL gang violence in inner cities and because the US has far more large cities there is more crime. (inner cities in Europe reflect similar crime rates of course not gun crime but more Knife, robbery, and rape crime) thanks to the US having far more cities this skews the level of crime.

having a gun does not suddenly mean you can commit crimes and resist the state. come on what kind of argument is that? really... seriously lacking logic.
"I mean if guns were good enough to present the government from infringing on your freespeech, they should be good enough to prevent the government from your ability to do drugs"
what? what kind of jump is this... this has no value in this conversation, if anything it would be an argument for me. if the government cant even stop illegal immigration OR DRUGS then how would banning guns stop guns? if anything law abiding citizens would no longer be able to acquire guns and criminals would be able to get them
"Regardless of your personal stand on drugs, surely you understand that guns don't make a distinction between the state infringing on your rights and the state enforcing a reasonable law?"
these arguments are completely unfounded and irrelevant to the topic, in comparison to India, AUS, and UK guns make it much harder for the state and government to pas laws that effect personal rights and free speech. history proves this, if your government becomes tyrannical it is legal to over throw it (yes its actually in the constitution)
"In any case, if I had cited the incarceration rate as proof that guns lower crime, your refutation would still have failed."
and? i just debunked this tangent of an argument that holds no value in this conversation.
"After all, both Australia and the UK (the two countries you named) have a higher percentage of their population living in cities than the USA."
actually that is false, only 79% of people in UK live in cities, in AUS its slightly higher at 89 the US is at 81%, good try though. also that still does not account for the number of metropolitan cities.
