Canada is cracking down on free speech on social media platforms. It is close to passing a new law that would expand government censorship of speech online.

And last week, a local lawmaker in Ontario introduced legislation and held a press conference (above) which would criminalize anyone making "offensive remarks" within 100 meters of drag shows.

If the law passes, it’s possible that the Canadian government could fine a person $25,000 for publicly saying that the two grown adults dressed up as witches and wizards are not, in fact, real witches and wizards.

On a related note, Canada enacted a law last year requiring parents to affirm their child is the opposite sex or face jail time.

Oh, Canada!
