Don't Hate. Love, Canada.

If you're a hater, and you're in that land
of drifting sagebrush and empty sand,
go ahead and get your hate on.
But not up here; not in this nation,
where the Mounties always get their man.

"Bring it, hate-boys," these toqued folks say.
"Talk your hate talk, and let come what may.
Good old Trudeau--he has made it
so that Mom's soap can stay where she laid it:
the CHRC will make you rue the day."

Oh, indeed, that fine Commission!
Parsing hate speech and omissions!
Didn't mean it? Still a hater!
Spoke the truth? Talk to us later.
Guess why we've got 100% convictions!

This Northern justice, it requires
only that you spoke; nothing higher.
If someone else might take offense,you are stripped of every defense,
even when the plaintiff is a liar.

I'd say some more of this except
that this is published on the Internet.
You know, of course, what this would mean:
it comes within Section 13!
So I'll stop. But I'm not finished yet.
