When the
Constitution Act of 1982 was built a little understood heinous idea was put
into the Constitution Act.
This was the Section 33, known as the not withstanding clause. What this clause
does is specifically allow the government to pass a law to limit or practically
revoke your rights included in section 2 and section 7-15 of the Charter of Rights
and Freedoms.
When you understand the depth and magnitude of this you start to understand
that Canada is not a Democracy. It’s no where near a democracy. It’s an elected
Dictatorship.
When your rights can be taken away with simply passing a law you have to think
and question the sanity of such a thing.
I want to break down for you the reader what this means and help you understand
what this could turn this country into if we keep electing the bad actors we
have been electing to government.
Lets start breaking this down.
2. Everyone has the following fundamental
freedoms:
(a) freedom of conscience and religion;
>>They can pass a law to make it illegal practice a religion or all religion.
(b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;
>>They can pass a law to limit or make it illegal to have freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication that does not coincide with the government dogma or laws they pass.
(c) freedom of peaceful assembly; and
>>They can pass a law to limit or make it illegal to have the peaceful assembly, which could also interfere with religious gatherings, as well as the public going to meetings or groups or civic meetings.
(d) freedom of association.
>>They can pass a law to limit or make it illegal to associate with certain types or groups of people. To make associations to associate together, and including unions and opposing political parties.
7. Everyone has the right to life, liberty, and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.
>>This means they can pass a law to take this right of not being executed without a trial. Summary execution. This also means that you can be searched by cops just walking or driving by without any recourse.
8. Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.
>>When you pass a law to take this away, this means the police and just come and take you away, no warrant, and no due process of law.
9. Everyone has the right not to be arbitrarily detained or imprisoned.
What does this mean? This means if they pass a law you can go into an oubliette and that’s that.
10. Everyone has the right on arrest or detention
(a) to be informed promptly of the reasons therefor;
>> Gestapo anyone?
(b) to retain and instruct counsel without delay and to be informed of that right; and
>>No right or protection to retain a lawyer, nor the right to even be informed of that right.
(c) to have the validity of the detention determined by way of habeas corpus and to be released if the detention is not lawful.
>> No right of habeas corpus? No right to have the validity of your detention checked by a court? The removal of habeas corpus, an underlying principle in the rule of law
11. Any person charged with an offense has the right
(a) to be informed without unreasonable delay of the specific offense;
>>Being told whenever they get around to telling you what you are being charged with whenever they feel like it, in 5 years maybe??
(b) to be tried within a reasonable time;
>>So you might get tried before you die rotting away in jail..
(c) not to be compelled to be a witness in proceedings against that person in respect of the offense;
The ability of the government to be able to remove this where you are forced to be a witness against yourself… Let’s think about that. They torture you to get you say shit and then use it against you..
(d) to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal;
>>The ability to remove this by law is a police state, it’s a communist state, it socialist state and a fascist state. Just having the ability of the government to remove this right from its citizens should scare the shit out of people.
(e) not to be denied reasonable bail without just cause;
>>To be able to make bail unreasonable should alarm people.
(f) except in the case of an offence under military law tried before a military tribunal, to the benefit of trial by jury where the maximum punishment for the offence is imprisonment for five years or a more severe punishment;
>>To be able to remove the rights of military persons by passing a law would and should make any person serving this country question their rights. At that right, they might as well go with the guillotine.
(g) not to be found guilty on account of any act or omission unless, at the time of the act or omission, it constituted an offence under Canadian or international law or was criminal according to the general principles of law recognized by the community of nations;
>> Think about it the ability of the Judge to ignore this generally just makes me question the sanity of the framers of this Constitution Act.
(h) if finally acquitted of the offence, not to be tried for it again and, if finally found guilty and punished for the offence, not to be tried or punished for it again; and
>>The
ability of the government to remove Double Jeopardy. The right for them to
charge you with the same crime and put you back in jail again?
Are you worried yet?
(i) if found guilty of the offence and if the punishment for the offence has been varied between the time of commission and the time of sentencing, to the benefit of the lesser punishment.
>>The ability to take away the protection against adjusting criminal sentences because you decided that all crimes should have longer sentences is something that should alarm you.
12. Everyone has the right not to be subjected to any cruel and unusual treatment or punishment.
>>If you do not question this and think long and hard about this and question why this is even allowed to be suspended, to where the government can be cruel and have unusual treatment and punishments you really are not wondering how far a government could go by passing a law.
13. A witness who testifies in any proceedings has the right not to have any incriminating evidence so given used to incriminate that witness in any other proceedings, except in a prosecution for perjury or for the giving of contradictory evidence.
>So if you are a witness that gives incriminating evidence against yourself, you can’t have that used against you, but if this is taken a way, you can have everything you say used against you so the government can charge you with a crime.
14. A party or witness in any proceedings who does not understand or speak the language in which the proceedings are conducted or who is deaf has the right to the assistance of an interpreter.
>>The power to take away your right to an interpreter so you can understand any charges being levied against you, how dastardly do they have to be to force you to be charged and not understand why.
15. (1) Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.
>>The ability to take away your equality before and under the law, and equal protection of the law, and then the right of the government to discriminate against you based on your race, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, sex, age, or mental or physical disability.
(2) Subsection (1) does not preclude any law, program or activity that has as its object the amelioration of conditions of disadvantaged individuals or groups including those that are disadvantaged because of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.
>>The ability to pass a law to suspend anything the government passed to help disadvantaged people.
Now let’s understand section 33 in context so you can understand how easy it is for the government to do this. All they need to do is stand up in the house of commons or provincial legislature and suspend people’s rights for up to 4 years with the ability to renew could last indefinitely.
While what I write does sound drastic, and you think to yourself, this guy is over the top and is out to lunch, you must ask yourself this question, If the possibility is there for this type of abuse, is there a chance this could happen? You will automatically say no and tell yourself this guy is a quack.
Let us be honest, if the ability to remove people’s rights is there and you look at the successive governments of the past 5 years giving more and more power to intelligence agencies when you look at what is going on with how our government operating and passing laws that are against the interests of citizens.
You need to ask yourself, could it be possible? I submit, yes it is because when they start passing laws for intelligence agencies to spy on citizens, that means they are making records against people they deem undesirables or those likely to talk common sense to get people to wake up.
The Constitution Act took away people’s rights and freedoms they had before 1982, and this is the problem with it that no one wants to talk about. The dark secret is when it comes to rights if they are defined by law or a Constitution Act like we have with the ability of the government to suspend our rights for up to 5 years with the ability to renew it sets a very dangerous precedent when it comes a country being a Democracy.
If Canada was a Democracy, section 33 would have never been put into the Constitution Act. In essence, the country becomes an elected Dictatorship just like Nazi Germany or Communist China.
People need to know their history, but public education deliberately does not teach it. They teach about the Nazis but very little about the communists of Russia and China. They teach us the history that is written by despots and ideologues to keep the status quo.
