  Are you referring to the "Language Police" in Quebec as something to
look up to as an example of civil rights?

YES I valued Civil Rights.  It was in the Charter of Rights signed by
John Diefenbaker in 1962.   The ownership of property then but left
out after the so called Constitution crap started.  After that passed
it only made money for the lawyers  and erroded what
we had with all the Bills Passed before.

I still want a party to say we'll give on important issues the citizens
to vote on this or that...as they do in other countrys and some US States.
 
Other then that, well it will get so bad allowing every 5 years or whenever
the BLOC gets all headup....another vote on Quebec...Mmmmm maybe I'd
like to vote on them too!   Plenty of Crappy Tire money for them to
have as currency.

Oh yes...yesterday I ran into a similar babble about rights in a chat zone
there were two  one in english and one in french.  Both allowed both
languages...but when they didn't like what I had to say in the french
side I got booted and banned.   In the english side the same statement
brought forth a great chat...That shows to me the mind in Quebec...the
language police at work.  No problem....civil rights all the way..with
the consent of the majority not some politician in parliament.
 
I still have not decided on how to vote...And this time might not again.
Politics and politicians are dirty...broken promises.  ttfn




... ARRRRRGGGHHH!!!! ... Tension breaker, had to be done.
