CAFE Supporters Urge National Post to Stop Censoring Frank Stronach

Anglo-Saxon legal principles all too often forgotten in the current diversity mess held that a man was presumed innocent UNTIL proven guilty.

Today all too often punishment, unemployment and defamation descend on a person the minute a mere accusation of wrong, especially if it politically incorrect, is hurled at him.

Frank Stronach is an Austrian immigrant to Canada. Starting in his garage in downtown Toronto, he began manufacturing auto parts in the 1950s. He grew his tiny business into the manufacturing colossus known as Magna.

Stronach has strong views on the economy and labour relations. He tirelessly campaigns for profit-sharing with employees. He writes, or did until recently, a regular column for the supposedly conservative National Post.

Recently he was charged with a number of sexual crimes, including touching and assault, some going back to the 1970s, the most recent allegation occurred in 2023. Frank Stronach is 91 years old!

The charges, most decades after the alleged events, seem fishy. Be that as it may, Frank Stronach deserves to be treated as INNOCENT until PROVEN guilty. Yet, the National Post immediately dropped his column.

Frank Stronach is an incredibly successful European and German. We wonder if these qualities may lay behind this prosecution late in life. And, yes, may there not be a touch of German-bashing in it all?

No, Frank doesn’t need the money, but there’s an important pinciple here. On JUly 17, supporters of the Canadian Association for Free Expression protested outside the Toronto offices of the National Post. The rally sparked a number of interesting conversations.

CAFE Director Paul Fromm explains the issue.
