CAFE RALLIES FOR POLITICAL PRISONER LES BORY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MILTON, November 13, 2024. Today supporters of the Canadian Association for Free Expression staged an hour long rally outside the Maplehurst Detention Centre, where political prisoner, Les Bory has been held without bail since February 14, 2024. This is one of a series of rallies CAFE has held since the Spring to call attention to this travesty of justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were coming up on Remembrance Day. On November 11, we remember the sacrifices are soldiers made supposedly to protect freedom. Yet, one of those most basic freedoms — freedom of speech — is severely under attack in Canada today. Equally, part of the repressive state is the denial of bail to non-violent dissidents. Remembrance day was not be a solemn day  for Political Prisoner Les Bory. It will be a bitter reminder of how Canada has strayed from its ideals of freedom. He spent this day confined to the Maplehurst Detention Centre, denied bail, held as a political prisoner for the non-violent expression of his political beliefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve all met and heard political prisoner Leslie Bory. As of Remembrance Day, he will have spent 634 days in remand. He has been charged with three counts of uttering threats against privileged groups via a podcast, February 11, 2023. Several attempts to get bail for Leslie for a non-violent alleged crime have been denied. Leslie has no criminal record. The papers are filled with stories of violent criminals let back on the streets despite previous convictions for violence. His lawyer indicates that an “expedited” (that used to mean speeded up) trial for Leslie may not occur until January 2025! He will have spent two years and suffered two years’ loss of freedom and income without a conviction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, this is political! One of the groups he allegedly threatened or made nasty comments about is Canada’s most privileged group and I don’t mean Icelanders._____________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n
