Let's hope the Heritage Department (or at least the Conservative opposition) scrutinize the group's activity much more closely and ask themselves whether it truly deserves to be called "anti-hate" or rather anti-Canadian.
Why is the Canadian Government Funding an Anti-Canadian Hate Network?
The National Post dropped a bombshell recently when it reported on an extreme left-wing organization receiving $270,000 in federal funds to teach school kids that Canada's Red Ensign flag is a symbol of racial hatred—that is, the flag Canada flew under during World War II when it fought the Nazis. This taxpayer-funded "educational toolkit", authored by the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN), also equates supporting a US-Mexico border fence with a Nazi salute and encourages students to tell on each other for promoting ‘hateful ideas.'
The report is a must-read for taxpayers, patriots and especially parents, however, there's plenty more that raises concerns about the "educational" group. For instance, CAHN has close links to Antifa; a movement so extreme even the Obama Administration labelled it a domestic terrorist threat. This and other facts raises serious questions about why such a group is receiving federal grants (in fact, their second) and is being allowed to shape the minds of Canadian children.
