Ezra Levant .. I was arrested two hours ago, handcuffed, searched and jailed for “causing a disturbance”.

I was just released moments ago.

I wasn’t causing a disturbance — I was standing by myself on a public sidewalk, silently filming a grotesque pro-Hamas mannequin in a Jewish neighbourhood — a reenactment of Hamas leader Yayha Sinwar. It would be like someone reenacting Hitler — and police were stopping me from filming it.

I was pushed away from it by one officer. And another officer, named Macduff, said if I didn’t go to a special “free speech zone” they’d set up far away, I’d be arrested. I told him Canada was my free speech zone, I was a citizen and taxpayer, and I would not get off the sidewalk.

Macduff said that was causing a reaction. I said the hysterical reaction of foreign thugs who hate Jews (and most other Canadians) doesn’t give them a veto over my Charter rights.

Macduff said he “was the law”. I told him no, he was a servant of the law. So he arrested me and had me taken to jail. I was just released and I’ll have more to say — including in a lawsuit against Macduff and @TorontoPolice for violating my rights and refusing to protect me.

...

Welcome to Justin Trudeau's Canada.

Canada is not a free country anymore.

...

A free speech zone implies everywhere else in Canada is not a free speech zone

...

Canada is truly in a state of doom, as far as I am concerned. Those terrorists are roaming free while praising terrorist organizations and threatening Jews, and you're being arrested for doing absolutely nothing. Madness.

...

Our leaders now work for Hamas.

...

Same thing basically happened with @OsherFeldman in Australia. Antisemitism is everywhere. I'm sorry.

Police officers "just following orders" are enemies of the people.
