        This Gasparro dude used to be a board member of Postmedia.

        In July, a group of First Nations leaders called on the federal government to close the borders to the rappers, insisting that allowing them to perform violates the “spirit and obligations” of treaties between FN and the government.

        This is also interesting.

        But in general, we don’t have very strong free speech protections so I wouldn’t be surprised if they remain barred.

            That’s fair, since they’re on the record as endorsing groups that are recognized by the Canadian government as terrorist entities:

            A 2024 performance reportedly caught a group member cheering “Up Hamas, Up Hezbollah.”

              Yes because people in power have always made decent decisions. The law is moral and might makes right…

                    I’m not sure what you mean by that comment - are you saying Hamas and Hezbollah are OK? I wouldn’t welcome a band that praises the IDF, and this is no different.

                        Who are we to judge people how they resist their occupier. Canada certainly is not in a historical posture to pitch in on how to resist genocide.

                          To be even more fair; you’re directly quoting misinformation released by the Canadian government in support of Israel and their mass murder of Palestinian people (aka, genocide). This misinformation is a result of “Jewish” groups, which recently have shown themselves as basically being lapdogs for the Israeli state.

                          Kneecap aren’t anti-semetic, they are anti-Israel and as much as Israeli fascists want it to be; being against the Israeli state is not the the same as being against Jews.

                            “Kneecap represents not only a threat to the Jewish community, but their incitement, their glorification of terror, represent a threat to all Canadian values and to all Canadians,” Robertson said

                            Not my values you fascist shit bag.

                                          How, they equated Hezbollah to the IDF. Regardless of any arguments about equivalence or lack thereof, I don’t think a zionist would ever do that.
