Goodale turns up heat on social-media companies over hateful and violent content GlobePolitics

The Canadian government is joining its G7 allies in calling on social-media companies to find new ways to block hate speech and violent content on their platforms or bear a legal and financial cost for the resulting social harm.Mr. Goodale referred to the content posted as part of the March 15 attack on two mosques in New Zealand.

“Should we treat violent, right-wing extremism just as we would treat a threat from Daesh or ISIL? Yes indeed. It needs to be handled with the same degree of gravity,” he said. “There is a real determination among the G7 countries that we want to see the Internet companies moving faster, being more effective at keeping this stuff off the platforms and prevent it from being shared, prevent it from having the dire consequences that it can have.

“Canada will be one of [the countries] demanding that. If we don’t see enough progress fast enough, then we are prepared to act,” Mr. Goodale said.

RalphGoodale globepolitics Yet we have open boarders and Isis terrorists roaming free.

RalphGoodale globepolitics As soon as Trudeau aka: Captain Chaos & Team Disaster start getting bad Social Media posts it becomes a major problem!

RalphGoodale globepolitics Geez Ralphy, did you ever think that maybe just maybe if you Libbies weren’t involved in corruption, lies, gag orders, bullying, etc etc. That maybe people wouldn’t post what they post! People are sick of all of you. You should all be in jail! JustinTrudeau MichelleRempel

globepolitics 5/in that it clearly showed the lack of respect that he had for the voting public. If we feel like you are out of touch with us then no vote

globepolitics 4/ clearly he thought he was the only viable choice and the voters thought otherwise! But his statement was very telling ...

RalphGoodale globepolitics Oh Ralphie-boy,you didn't seem to have a problem with it when it was directed at Harper. Hypocrite

globepolitics 3/ in our riding during a federal election the liberal candidate said ' I dont understand where the voters heads were at!' (He lost)

globepolitics 2/ are not intelligent enough to cast a vote based on our own opinions or beliefs! If we dont vote liberal it MUST be due to interference!

globepolitics 1/ Even this talk of 'interference' through social media, the assumption is that if they lose the election its because canadian voters...

globepolitics this discussion presents as condescending and self serving! If someone has an opinion contrary to JT's why must that be labeled hate speech?

globepolitics The Liberal party's rhetoric becomes almost hatefull at times i have been deeply offended several times through this government's rule!

RalphGoodale globepolitics cve

RalphGoodale globepolitics Andrew Scheer to cry unfair interference - “How can I win without hateful content? Hasn’t anyone noticed who my campaign manager is?” cdnpoli

RalphGoodale globepolitics We're in good hands.

globepolitics When the majority of canadians say there is to much immigration yet they are labeled racist and spreading hate speech maybe politicians should actually listen to the people

globepolitics It all depends upon who is the target of the hate if is labeled hate or not. Some hate is ok and some is not.

globepolitics Goodale is a very sick man. Result of being a stupid Liberal. Goodale is going to ban everything.

globepolitics The only people testing our patience are those who want to be in control of what speech is prohibited and what is compelled.

globepolitics Which meant anything not complementary to the liberal party and Trudeau

globepolitics Does he mean the Liberal Party SMEARING Phillpot and Raybould? That’s hate speech....right Ralph

globepolitics Umm, you are going to stop them from spouting Liberal lies. You are the same as Hillary and the Democrats. Scream about the opposition and do it yourselves. Ralphie, time to retire.

globepolitics I have a hatred for hate lol,pls resign groper

globepolitics Also funny how there is such a double standard about WHO is allowed to spread HATE in the Western world thank to Liberal FREAKS like RalphGoodale Check out this guy who gets away with it ALL the time and no one bats an eye!

globepolitics LOL That's because most of the hate is directed at HIM and the Liberals! lol

globepolitics The big problem with social media companies is that they tolerate horrific content, such as child-porn, while enthusiastically censoring conservative opinions. Goodale is just trying to silence critics of his own government.
