#1 It would seem that a few targeted lawsuits across the country against groups and universities who are trying to deprive us of our basic rights as outlined in the Constitution ought to squelch much of this B.S. at least in the U.S. It would seem that the deprivation of 1st Amendment rights by these groups and institutions would be the basis for the lawsuits.

#5 This is where alarm bells went off for me:

"Does that include things that my employees say in their private time?"

"It includes everything they say. It doesn’t matter whether people complain or not. Even if no one complains, or even if the effect is unintentional. The other thing that’s built into this law and the surrounding policies – and this is also increasingly the case in sexual harassment tribunals on university campuses which the [Ontario Premier Kathleen] Wynne government is pushing like mad – they’ve changed two legal principles. It’s not ‘innocent before being proven guilty,’ it’s ‘preponderance of evidence,’ and it’s not intent, it’s outcome. Those transformations are so far reaching, it’s almost unimaginable."
