After various delays, Brad Love did connect with Carolyn in the first hour and gave an informative report on the type of unreasonable persecution he continues to experience from Canadian police and judicial authorities. Even in the town where he now lives and works, Fort McMurray in the oil-field area of Alberta, he is being brought up on seven charges, four of “harassment” and three of “sending scurrilous material” through the mail. This was, in fact, typified by a single letter to a newspaper and a single phone call to a disc-jockey.  You have to hear him tell it to believe it!

During the second hour, John Beattie called in and also chatted informatively about the Canadian mentality and the repeal of Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Commission. He sees it as a major victory for free(er) expression and feels much freer himself with it gone.

Apologies for the technical difficulties; this podcast is about 10 minutes shortened. Thanks to the listeners for hanging in there.

Brad Love of Alberta, Canada, an oil field worker and outspoken White patriot tells us about his 10-year battle with the courts over his habit of writing letters to elected officials, newspapers and tax-exempt organizations.  He is currently fighting his last conviction of May 2012 for a minor probation violation and for sending material in the mail to Hillel, B’nai B’rith, the Canadian Jewish Congress and York University Student Union in conjunction with End Israeli Apartheid Week. For this he was recently sentenced to 18 months in prison. Some of the topics discussed:

• Over the past 20 years, Love has written over 10,000 letters;
• In 2003 he was sentenced to 18 months jail time under Canada’s Sec. 319 of the Criminal Code (“hate law”);
• In 2006 he was ordered to serve 3-years probation with the stipulation he not write to anybody unless personally requested to do so;
• Love estimates he has spent 2 1/2 years in incarceration already;
• He objects to these restrictions on his free expression based on his being a hard-working, tax-paying Canadian-born citizen who has the right to express his thoughts and concerns;
• Because he works and earns a good income, he is not eligible for legal aid; all his expenses come out of his own pocket.

Brad Love does not have a website or an email address. The newspapers won’t write a word about him! The vicious anti-racists hate him! You can read a few things at CAFE (Canadian Association for Free Expression).
