Facebook is blocking Canadians’ posts on the assassination of a BC Sikh leader
To those saying "But Bill C-18" - it's not the Canadian government taking things down. It's the Indian government, taking down articles and posts that accuse them of assassinating a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil.<p>C-18 is a problem. We need to deal with it. That's not relevant to the issue at hand.<p>And to those saying "Well he was a terrorist..." we, in Canada, have something called the Rule of Law. You have to prove someone is guilty, in court, with real evidence. They serve time in prison for their crimes. They can be extradited to other countries to face court there.<p>If Bhai Hardeep Singh Nijjar was a terrorist, and there was sufficient evidence to convict him, the Indian government should have brought it to the Canadian Government. It's very simple really.<p>Murdering someone without trial because you don't like their political speech- why, I think there's a word for that.
