如果反冬奧警察進屋抓？卑詩引入新法律
[ 時間:2009-10-11 ]

卑詩省政府計劃引入法律，允許警方在2010年冬奧舉行期間有權強行進入民居，以清除在民居的所有反冬奧标語，以及可作出最高一萬元罰款或者要監禁 6個月。    該草案規定，溫哥華、烈治文和威斯勒的市政府在明年冬奧及殘奧舉行期間，一旦發現市民在家中高挂有關反冬奧的标語時，警員可以在24小時通知之後強行入屋，把标語除掉。而被罰的市民，罰款金額由2,000元至最高一萬元不等。
目前卑詩省警員如果要入屋搜查，需要至少一周以上先取得搜索令。而高達一萬元罰款，也令溫市在告票罰款上，跟其他自2004年就已經實施萬元罰款的城市看齊。
省社區及郊區發展廳長貝耐德（Bill Bennett）表示，這條新法案也有一些限制，但就看市政府怎樣去實施。他希望，市府行使這項法案時比之前更加小心，不要造成反效果。
被指破壞言論自由
卑詩公民自由協會（BC Civil Liberties Association）的霍姆斯（Robert Holmes）就認爲：「這是一件不可能的事，省政府将嚴重破壞言論自由的基礎。」
溫市議員麥傑士（Geoff Meggs）則強調，該附例隻是爲了取締一些不适當商業行爲，而非打壓示威者。市警曾經強調會和有關團體合作，以确保市民的示威和其他常規活動均能舉行。

I dont think this law can stand up in court under the canadian constitution/charter of rights but by the time it gets through the court system the Olympics will be over. Gordon Campbell's a sneaky little weasel.

China is a different country. They do things their own way which is suitable during this stage of their development.

This is an abuse of human rights. If this happens in China, anti-China people like Lik will be on a rage. But, of course now, Lik is pretending he does not know about it.

Earlier this week, the association helped two anti-Olympics activists launch a legal challenge of Vancouver's 2010 Olympics bylaw in B.C. Supreme Court, claiming it was an unconstitutional restriction on free speech.

Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson says he's still studying the issue.

"Certainly, groups such as civil liberties have the right to challenge the laws, the bylaws that are made, so we'll respect that process and hopefully it makes those laws stronger and more reasonable," Robertson said.

The association is suspicious of the timing of the provincial bill's introduction so close to the Olympic games, which have been planned for years.

"We've seen them timing things so that they don't put in place laws that are special to the Olympics until the last minute," Holmes said. "And part of that leads to the suspicion that they've done it in a calculated and deliberate way, to remove the ability of the courts, and people who might want to take it to court, to have their rights protected."

The difference is, here in Canada, something like this starts off as a proposed bill. And while VANOC and the provincial government are suspicious for the timing of the proposed bill, both the legislative and the judiciary processes are in place to stop any unconstitutional acts. And, even if the bill passes into law, judiciary review can still be used to overthrow the earlier decision (or at least in theory it's possible).

Does China have such due processes? The Party, the government, and the courts are one and the same. What the Party wishes to happen will generally happen, even if it violates the rights and wishes of the citizens. If such protests / legal challenges were launched in China, the organizers will be taken into custody in no time. We all know what happens to China's 維權人士.

nobody will know if you have anti-olympics posters inside your home. It's only when you hang the posters on the outside your home, then they will take it down. But still it's too heavy handed.
