The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal described Richard Warman as: He [Warman] advised the Tribunal that he has spent 15 years campaigning against hate messages. About five years ago, he focused on the internet. Although he was not qualified as an expert, I allowed him to provide some background on the material that was entered into evidence.
Para 8: Warman
v Warman ruling
Mr. Warman is a resident of Ottawa. He has developed an interest in human rights issues over the past 15 years, and is actively involved in anti-racism groups. For a time, he worked for the Commission. Most recently, he has focussed his attention on hate propaganda disseminated through the Internet, by monitoring the Internet activity of what he describes as extreme right-wing and neo-Nazi groups.
Para 4: Warman
v. Kulbashian et all.
[64] Mr. Warman has, with the assistance of the Commission,
instituted most of the s. 13 (1) complaints under the Act that have come
before the Tribunal. He has been very successful in these cases and has
garnered accolades for his work in this regard. The evidence in this
case of his participation on Internet sites similar to the Northern
Alliance site is both disappointing
and disturbing. It
diminishes his credibility. For this reason and because the
activities of the Respondents have ceased for a lengthy period of time,
I will not make any further Orders in this matter.
Para 64:
Warman v. Northern Alliance
[63] I do not see any
acceptable reason for Mr. Warman to have participated on the Stormfront
or Vanguard sites, since there appears to be ample easily obtained
messages on these sites available without his involvement. Moreover, it is possible that his activity in this regard, could have precipitated
further hate messages in response. His explanation for including
other hate messages in his postings by mistake seems very weak to me.
Why should Richard Warman be the only
citizen to have his own personal inquisition?
Who has availed themselves of the
"human rights" protected by Section XIII? In its entire
history, over half of all cases have been brought by a sole
"complainant," one Richard Warman. Indeed, Mr. Warman has been
a plaintiff on every single Section XIII case before the federal
"human rights" star chamber since 2002 — and he's won every
one. That would suggest that no man in any free society anywhere on the
planet has been so comprehensively deprived of his human rights. Well,
no. Mr. Warman doesn't have to demonstrate that he's been deprived of
his human rights, only that it's "likely" (i.e. "highly
un-") that someone somewhere will be deprived of some right
sometime. Who is Richard Warman? What's his story? Well, he's a former
employee of the Canadian Human Rights Commission: an investigator. Same
as Shirlene McGovern.
Isn't there something a little odd in
a supposedly necessary Canadian federal "human rights" system
used all but exclusively by one lone Canadian who served as a long-time
employee of that system? Why should Richard Warman be the only citizen
to have his own personal inquisition? You can hardly blame the Canadian
Islamic Congress and the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada and no doubt
the Supreme All- Powerful Islamic Executive Council of Swift Current,
Sask., for now figuring they'd like a piece of the human rights action.
