Che\u00a0 Okay but Not HH: Another Victim of Political Censorship at the Border<\/span><\/div>\n

WINNIPEG.August 31, 2108. Brandon resident Scott McDonald and a friend were detained for secondary inspection by Canada Border Services Agency on a trip back from Germany. In what was clearly political harassment, Scott’s luggage was searched and t<\/span>eeshirts and stickers to the value of over 200 Euro ($300) seized. His cellphone was stolen as well. His goods have been sent to Ottawa to the Prohibited Importations Unit — it was HIS cellphone, not an import — for investigation as possible “hate propaganda”.<\/span><\/div>\n

Scott and his friend were wearing teeshirts with 88 on them. Some people interpret this as HH ( or Heil Hitler). That’s an interpretation. Otherwise they are just numbers. One wonders whether Scott would have excited any attention if he had worn a Che Guevara teeshirt. Guevara was a murdering, Negro-hating communist revolutionary. But probably such a teeshirt would not have been a problem nor should it be.<\/span><\/div>\n

“This is not fair,” Scott says. “None of the stickers or teeshirts preached hate against anyone.”<\/span><\/div>\n

While CBSA, under orders from Ottawa, is utterly unable to stem the flood of illegals across the Quebec border, they seem Johnny-on-the-spot to harass Canadians with possibly politically incorrect ideas.<\/span><\/div>\n

Mr. McDonald approached CAFE for advice. Regretably, CAFE has had considerable experience over the past 30 years with Canada Customs and CBSA’s repeated anti-free speech campaigns.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
