Here's a few clips of Ezra Levant defending his right to free speech and thought before a aptly named
human rights officer, Mrs McGovern. Abso-fucking-lutly brilliant
This is his response to a question of "What was your intent?"

Conservative who published Prophet cartoons faces rights commission
Calgary Herald
Published: Thursday, January 10, 2008
CALGARY - Outspoken conservative commentator Ezra Levant will be before the Alberta Human Rights Commission Friday defending his former magazine's 2006 publication of a series of Danish cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.
Members of Calgary's Muslim community were outraged when Levant's now-defunct publication, the Western Standard, published the cartoons in February 2006, shortly after their initial appearance in a Danish newspaper led to rioting and protests around the world.
