Justice Elizabeth Stewart, Chief Justice of the Dumb Ages
Theoretically you do not need to be either a moron or partisan political hack to be appointed to the bench in Canada. I say theoretically because as of yet it has never happened but I still hold out hope that someday it might. Our latest example of why Canada will never be a real country comes from Justice Elizabeth Stewart.
Justice Stewart presided over a libel case brought by Dr. Kulvinder Kaur Gill against several of her colleagues. Dr. Gill is a prominent COVID policy critic. Because she did not agree with the government narrative Dr. Gill was subject to constant public attacks from pro-hysteria medical professionals. So how radical were Dr. Gill’s opinions? Is she a deranged lunatic endangering life with her COVID advice? You can judge for yourself. These are her most dangerous statements that Tom Blackwell of the national post could find.
Among other things, Gill said a vaccine was not needed against the virus, that most people had natural immunity to COVID and there was no scientific rationale for keeping people at home to short-circuit its spread.
Wow what a radical, right? There is not an untrue word in that statement. The vaccines are unnecessary largely because they are ineffective. As long as you were not stupid enough to destroy innate immunity through vaccination 80% of people would never have gotten sick. And lastly lockdowns never had any scientific justification so, not surprisingly, they did not work. Dr. Gill was attacked by her colleagues for telling a truth that contradicted government lies.
Unfortunately for Dr. Gill, truth is not a defense in Canada; in fact it is rarely if ever allowed inside a court room. Justice Stewart ruled against Dr. Gill and ordered her to pay 1.1 million in damages. Her suit was struck down as “a potential curb on important public debate”.
I am a little confused by this ruling. What does a public debate have to do with libel? Is the judge saying there was no libel? In that case why was it important to mention public debate? Or was the Judge saying you cannot have a public debate without allowing people to libel each other? In that case why do we even have libel laws?
This is just another great example of how dysfunctional the Canadian legal system is. Once again a judge set aside law and logic to support a government objective. Public debate was not at question here. Even if the issue was public debate Dr. Gill was not the one stifling it by taking a contrary view point. Debate was being stifled by the people attacking her for not conforming.
The Dark Ages did not begin and end at the same time in every place. Some countries pulled themselves out sooner than others. The same is true of the Dumb Ages. Thanks to people like Justice Stewart Canada entered the Dumb Ages long before anywhere else and will remain in the Dumb Ages long after the rest of the world shakes free. Progressive Liberals have broken things in Canada that may never be repaired.
