The Ceeb sides with the censors: An “unbiased” Ceeb story claims that the Conservative move to get rid of Section-13 is one sign that the party is “veering to the right”. Notice how it describes the effort to restore free speech (my bolds):

A resolution that seeks to limit the investigative and adjudication powers of the Canadian Human Rights Commission and tribunals for complaints of hate-mongering was passed almost unanimously.

Hmmm. From the sounds of it, the Ceeb prefers the status quo: giving “investigators” and “adjudicators” unlimited power to curb “hate-mongering” (by forcing those with politically incorrect views to shut the hell up). Not much of a surprise, really, given that Ceeb and the HRCs are staffed by the same sort of anti-free speech ideologues.
