[They]have all attracted the CHRC's ire because they've said or done something "likely to expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt."
That's from Section 13.1 of the Canadian Human Rights Act. Note that magic word: "likely." No need to prove certain words or images inspired tangible hate crimes, like arson or assault. Rather, CHRC bureaucrats need merely deem it "likely" that persons unknown might commit such crimes between now and the end of the world. That's "thought crime" meets "future crime." And it is enshrined in Canadian law.
Oh, and the Human Rights Commission's conviction rate for Section 13.1 cases? A Stalinist 100%.
And now the Canadian Gov is going after more people for the horrid crime of being "unmutual"
More info at the link, and remember this when people claim Bush is shredding the Bill of Rights.
