Trudeau gov't internet censorship Bill C-11 becomes law

• https://www.lifesitenews.com, Anthony Murdoch

Senators in the majority vote agreed to tell the House of Commons that it will accept the version of the bill the House passed last month. This means that the changes the Senate demanded to be made to the bill will not be included in the bill as the House rejected a vast majority of the proposed amendments. 

The now-passed motion, put forth by Senator Marc Gould, explains that "Government Bill C-11 would amend the Broadcasting Act to modify Canada's broadcasting policy, bring into the act 'online undertakings' that transmit content over the internet, and change the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's regulatory powers, among many other things." 

In the Upper Chamber, senators appointed by Trudeau have spent the last few days shutting down further debate on the bill, with the vote today essentially accepting it as is.

One Conservative senator, who voted against the bill, blasted its passage as a "sad day" for Canada.
