Supporters of the Canadian Association for Free Expression picketed the constituency office of &#8220;Diversity&#8221; Minister Ahmed Hussen, a Somali refugee and dual citizen, this afternoon. They demanded that he rescind a recent grant to the anti-free speech lobby group, the Canadian Anti-Hate Network for the production of a booklet to combat &#8220;hate&#8221; in the schools but which is really of guidebook for suppressing politically incorrect ideas among students, even urging kids to rat on other kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As people from neighbouring stores and houses gathered around and largely agreed with the protesters, an employee locked the office door and fled. CAFE left its press statement and a few placards for the employee when she feels safe to return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Diversity&#8221; Minister Ahmed Hussen has given the militantly anti-free speech Canadian Anti-Hate Network $268,400 to produce a book for schools to fight hate. The book is sloppy and contains not a word about radical Islam. &#8220;Hate&#8221; has a specific meaning in the Criminal Code. Virtually none of the groups or views they smear as &#8220;hate&#8221; has ever been charged let alone found guilty under the law. &#8220;Hate&#8221;&nbsp; really means views or opinions the Canadian Anti-Hate Network hates. Those include the Red Ensign and Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It is outrageous Ahmed Hussen who was welcomed as a refugee&nbsp; would so repay Canadians by funding this bigotted attack on free speech,&#8221; said CAFE Director Paul Fromm.&nbsp; The booklet lists opinions the Canadian Anti-Hate Network finds unacceptable and urges teachers and students to try to suppress them. For instance, Gay Pride, Black Pride, Latino Pride are all good, but Euro-Pride of White Pride are &#8220;hate&#8221; and to be banished from schools<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Listing the Red Ensign&nbsp; as a &#8220;hate&#8221; symbol, the flag Canadian soldiers fought under in two world wars &#8212;&nbsp; this included my parents who both served under this flag &#8212;&nbsp; is an insult to Canadian history,&#8221; Mr. Fromm added\/<br>&#8220;We will&nbsp; demand:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. That the grant be rescinded<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. That the booklet be withdrawn and not distributed to educators<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. That the minister apologize for the smear against the Red Ensign that was our country&#8217;s flag.&nbsp; Whether this smear was made out of ignorance or malice toward Old Stock Canadians, HOW DARE HE?&#8217; Mr. Fromm concluded<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/HUSSEN-PROTEST-JULY-5-2022-7-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC03240-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The crest on Hussen&#8217;s sign (the crest of Canada) is the SAME crest on the Red Ensign he and the anti-free speech Canadian Anti-Hate Network say is a &#8220;hate symbol&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Rescind the Grant, Withdraw the Bigotted &#8216;Anti-Hate&#8217; Booklet,&#8221; CAFE Tells Somali &#8220;Diversity&#8221; Minister Ahmed Hussen Weston, July 5, 2022.
