No, no it doesn't. All it does is mean you can't go up to them and harass them. It's that f***ing simple, i don't see what problem you see with it. Nobody is limiting your speech in any reasonable manner. Do you think it's your right to harass the people you work with?
So what the issue being raised is yes you won't go to jail, but its still illegal, its still a legal censorship on speech regarding binary people, gender fluid etc which are not malleable definitions to begin with as they are open to change as much and as often as the individual chooses.
Binary is a term used for male and female. Binary as in 1 and 0, only two options, one or the other. It's literally what you believe in. Fluid means you believe gender is on a spectrum. None of this is subject to change and none of this is new and It's been established in academic circles for a while now. You just haven't heard of it and you wrongfully think it's some new fad.
It's not censorship. Everyone is still allowed to discuss these topics, state their beliefs, use whatever language they want to.
EMPLOYERS are not allowed to discriminate against and harass their queer employees. It's that simple. Again, this would be tantamount to a redneck crying that he's being censored because they can't harass black people.
Its all fair and well Jedi running around flag waving saying "How many people have gone to jail, none!" that is no victory when I hadn't stated otherwise.
In fact that whole list of things he stated ............ I hadn't argued or stated against to begin with, not one sentence, so what was the point of listing it exactly?
No, what you've done is "assumed" I have some sort of same belief as reactionary folk you've come across before rather than ask what I believed, again, it happens.
Come on DG you compared extending human rights to trans people to "what the Nazis did". You absolutely f***ing are a reactionary and you've proven it time and time again in every political discussion. You are one of those people that watches "SJW destroyed by facts and logic" compilations on YouTube, i just know you are. That kind of rhetoric oozes out of you every time you speak. Your beliefs, your concerns, it's all pointing in one direction and that is too much YouTube videos.
Just admit it, you sat at home, you opened up YouTube, watched some
Jordan Peterson EDUCATES liberal SJW on Bill C-16 videos and you thought it's a bigger deal than it really is.
Nobody is coming for free speech. Nobody is censoring you. Nothing changed in Canada since Bill C-16 got passed and nothing will change. Stop it.
You can keep trying to put words in my mouth and box me as "one of those" all you want, but again, quote me!
You can't quote me because I never uttered anything like that, I mentioned that bill because UFGN was insisting that Left wing policies aren't making their way into law and they are ............
I don't care what you feel is acceptable, I'm simply stating that by uttering in gender fluid, gender identity etc etc is introducing non biological terms into law that didn't even exist 100 years ago.
You saying they get protection from harassment, they are / should be protected under the same laws we all have as individuals.
Let me ask you something, without technology we would have basically Cross dressers not actual Transgender as in "post op" bits removed and hormone replacement etc because it couldn't be done, so what that means is we're now layering illegal speech with terms which are modern phenomena, one of the issues with it is because of the nature of the situation what's to stop people changing their gender preference every day and it being a legally backed status?
As I said, can of worms, one that's a "modern" privilege which Canada is introducing into law.
Your key word is about binary "Its what you believe in" this is the issue, its now law in Canada that to whatever extent people are legally obliged to take part in your "view", not your biological disposition .......... but your belief.
So I would say to UFGN who is anti religion because of homophobia, what would you say if I said you legally have to accept Catholics beliefs no matter how far fetched as they are legally protected and you can be found guilty of offence if you argue it ............. just because they believe it to be true.
Can you not see what I'm getting at here, the issue isn't about how far the law goes, this issue is your backing a persons view or self belief over reality / biological fact and making it legal, so now I legally have to accept your "chosen" status.
It might be starting out as an Employer law but there is wording in there which can easily mean this could be just the start.
You can keep blaming it on Youtube videos if it makes you feel better but that's just an easy cop out of debate.
As for comparing it to Nazis I specifically said the comparison was based on Right ideologies and Left ideologies both have the same approaches to control, one of them as the Nazi's did were to start introducing laws on speech and censorship, the Left in its full glory i.e Communism was just as bad if not worse for doing that.
We can agree to disagree, but don't state "I'm wrong" unless you can quote a statement I've made which is actually wrong.
............ if you want to move on to one of the other points, pick one.
"You're wrong on the far right being isolationists.
You're wrong to attribute every death under Communism to Communism but then not do the same thing with Capitalism."
