In an article dated February 24th, the Regina Leader Post claims that I was convicted of harassment for “following an interracial couple around a Saskatoon mall and asking the man repeatedly: “Why are you walking around with our women if you weren’t born in Canada?””.
This is false. I asked the complainant a single time:
“Why are you walking around with our women if you’re not born here?“
Although not everyone might agree with the premise of this question, it is not an imprisonable one. There is nothing inherently wrong with posing such a question to someone when the conversation is consentual.
These lies are being promoted by media sources to cover up the fact that their prosecution is based on the deliberate withholding of evidence which speaks to my defence.
An accused person is entitled to all evidence within the possession of the Crown which might reasonably speak to their defence.
This political prosecution has been conducted as part of an effort to suppress nationalism in Canada.
Since 2017, we have advocated reinstating the Immigration Act of 1952. The prosecution wants the public to believe that discriminating between naturalized citizens and immigrants is a crime, and that anyone who does so, is liable to imprisonment.
In a country where the judiciary is supposed to be impartial, imprisoning political candidates for asking such a fair question is wrong.
These proceedings further demonstrate that Canadians who advocate their nationality are being imprisoned for doing so. They demonstrate that the current administration in Ottawa is adversarial toward Canadian nationalism. This comes shortly after the Liberal Government announced it’s intention to transition Canada into the “world’s first post-national country”.
The accused person has committed no crime here. Their actions were reasonable, and in the absence of full and frank disclosure, I reserve my section 11(d) Charter right to be presumed innocent.
