Moonbats equating, tax money with free speech, arg.

We are already intimately familiar with the media elites, uniting in solidarity to cut off Canadians from viewing the “offensive content” produced by the Danish cartoonists a few years ago. In their own eyes, they were righteous in their roles as gatekeepers of knowledge, to keep us from offensive content then.But now, with Bill C-10 and the government’s efforts to save Canadian taxpayers from paying for porn and snuff, they are crying out that it is ludicrous to talk about censoring “offensive content”. Open season, they call for! Artistic expression they cry!

Unless it offends their orthodoxy that is.

Cutting off tax funding of goofballs is hardly free speech.

I doubt I have one post on Mark Steyn, Ezra Levent, or Free Dominion etc where I demand they get tax dollars to express themselves.

A change within Bill C-10 would allow the federal government to deny a tax credit to Canadian productions that include graphic sexual or violent content, or are otherwise deemed “offensive.”

It’s a ridiculously broad notion that needs to be thrown out now. Canadian actress and director Sarah Polley and many others railed against the bill this week and its obvious threat to an industry cast in the shadow of its U.S. competition.

About time, why pay for smut when we can use more doctors? Oh wait some people think the money grows on trees.

As Polley told a Senate hearing now reviewing the bill, its addition would hinder Canadians’ ability to make edgy, meaningful art and slash domestic budgets.

LOL meaningful like if they did one movie about Europe’s troubles with Islam I might care if there was one showing that most Canadians want less immigration I might care. They don’t so I don’t care about their tax credit maybe direct the money to Kate at SDA she doesn’t get even tax credits.
