Tory MP Michael Cooper's sin was that he quoted the following from the Christchurch killer: "Conservatism is corporatism in disguise. I want no part of it ... The nation with the closest political and social values to my own, is the People's Republic of China."



From Sun News Media



Here are the banned words Conservative MP Michael Cooper quoted from accused Christchurch, New Zealand terrorist Brenton Tarrant's manifesto that blew up the Commons justice committee last week: "Conservatism is corporatism in disguise. I want no part of it ... The nation with the closest political and social values to my own, is the People's Republic of China."



Cooper cited those three short sentences from Tarrant's rambling, 74-page manifesto for a reason.



He was responding to a claim by Faisal Khan Suri, president of the Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council.



In his testimony, Suri linked "conservative commentator," without any qualifications or limitations, to the alt-right, anti-immigrant and anti-muslim groups, mass murderers, and U.S. President Donald Trump.



He suggested these factors contributed to terrorist Alexandre Bissonette's attack on a Quebec City mosque in 2017, in which six Muslims at prayer were shot dead, and to the Christchurch terrorist attack earlier this year, where 51 Muslims in two mosques were murdered.



Angered by Suri's careless linkage of "conservative commentators" to these attacks, Cooper quoted Tarrant's own words in his manifesto, denouncing conservatism and stating he was a fan of communist China.



For quoting Tarrant, Conservative leader Andrew Scheer denounced Cooper and, absurdly, removed him from the justice committee (after Cooper had publicly apologized, or more likely was forced to apologize).



Cooper's only sin was that in his anger over what Suri said, he attacked him personally, which was rude.



But Liberal MPS who control the justice committee routinely disparage witnesses they disagree with.



Recall that this is the same committee which was the kangaroo court where Liberal MPS shamelessly tried and failed to attack the credibility of former attorney-general Jody Wilson-raybould in the Lavscam scandal.



On Tuesday, Liberal and NDP members of the committee, emboldened by Scheer's kneecapping of Cooper and in a bid to further humiliate the Conservatives, unanimously adopted a motion by Liberal MP Randy Boissonnault expunging Cooper's reference to Tarrant's name and what he said from the official record of the committee's proceedings.



This because Tarrant's manifesto is "banned" in New Zealand, which neither applies to Canada nor means that people can't discuss its contents when debating the causes of terrorism.



Conservative MPS, cowed by Scheer's expulsion of Cooper, abstained from voting on the motion, instead of opposing it as they should have.



Because what the Liberal and NDP MPS did to Cooper is what tyrannies do, and what George Orwell warned us against, in his cautionary novel about dictatorial government power run amok, 1984.



In 1984, members of the "Inner Party" retroactively censor official transcripts, expunging, in the name of Big Brother, language the Party deems offensive, or subversive, by sending it down the "memory hole."



Following that, the justice committee cut the video feed of the testimony of Mark Steyn, Lindsay Shepherd and John Robson, invited by the Conservatives, to outline their concerns about re-instating Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act governing hate speech. Only the audio feed was made available.



Section 13 was scrapped in 2013 as an attack on free speech under the Harper Conservative government, through a majority vote on a Tory MP'S private member's bill.



It's disturbing that on the 75th anniversary of D-day, when Canadian soldiers stormed Juno Beach to defeat Nazism and its attack on fundamental freedoms, like free speech, our politicians, in all parties, have no idea of what free speech means.

Repeating that has consequences for MP''s.

It should be an offence for a political party to sanction a member for exercising their right to free speech.



As long as the law is complied with ALL MP's should be free to express their personal opinions without fear of party hacks imposing some form of punishment. That is repression. That is why political parties are a carbuncle on modern civilisation's posterior.

It is Orwellian what's happening to Michael Cooper.

Michael Cooper has done nothing to warrant disciplinary action.

The power and influence of political parties over OUR elected representatives is utterly immoral.



We elect them...not the party. They are answerable to us. Not the party. We pay them. Not the party.

There is no socialist option for me, and for people like SB, there is no small government option. Prog money owns all the parties.

While we endure the current system, it's the best ANY nation can do.

I've pretty much given up on Canadian politics.
