Subsection 4 is probably most relevant to this discussion, which I believe is effectively a press exemption:
“Subsections (1) and (2) do not apply to anything done in the course of providing a programme service”
- alehul 8y agoSo there are freedoms of speech that are limited to the press? A collection of individuals in a corporation has more rights to speech than an individual alone? Thank you for making that distinction, and based on the interpretation of "a programme service" you may well be correct. I wonder whether this brings up a separate issue, as the post I responded to was rather rightly questioning how you can have limited rights to free speech and supposedly have a free press. If that is indeed a compatible notion, it seems worrying in a different way.
