Is this being done because a law says they should, like Qatar's anti-LGBT, any-woman, anti-freedom of expression laws?
Or are these the actions of bad cops?
Canadians don't actually want our police officers to hurt people, which is why we protest when anything like that happens. A protest in Qatar would get you jailed or worse, even if it's only on social media.
Do you know anything about this story, or just the headlines? Something tells me that you don't read past headlines.
Nah, I'm tired of rebutting poorly cherry-picked examples of things that have nothing to do with Qatar (the actual subject of the OP's article). But you're free to hate on Canada as much as you like (we don't jail people for having an opinion 🤗).
Yes, on paper. But a bad cop shouldn't be representative of all Canadian law enforcement.
Is there a LAW, as with Qatar, that explicitly criminalizes first nations people for being first nation? If not, stop grasping at straws.
Ay, you really didn't read beyond the headlines. It's all there, bud. No need for me to "lie" about anything.
Examples, please.
Why cherry-pick one wildly complex and prolonged criminal investigation involving three major superpowers and corruptions among Chinese corporations as an example that Canada violates human rights as a matter of law?
Do you have any actual examples of Canadian laws that violate human rights?
On the contrary, you made some incredibly misinformed statements, which needed to be corrected. I'd expect the same if I posted something that wasn't true or misunderstood.
At the end of the day, I'm not the one trying to defend or minimize Qatar's long-standing, horrific human rights violations (even to this very day).
