  • I'm struggling to understand why you think the title is misleading. Could you elaborate on your rationale to help me understand? 🙂

    Do you perhaps have an alternative title that you would suggest? Would you be satisfied by something like, for example, "Pornhub saw a 22.4% increase in Linux traffic (from [e.g.] 5% to ~6%) over 2025"?

  • I encourage you to examine the references section at the bottom of the post. The references correspond to their relevant citations in the post.

  • […] We do “spirit of the law” here anyway and not “letter of the law” so if someone were convicted under this law for furry stuff it would go straight to appeal.

    In this case, out of curiosity, how would "the spirit of the law" be determined?

  • Two animals fucking is not beastiality. A person fucking an animal is.

    For clarity, that is why my title specifies "in part" 🙂.

  • […] The media has to involve - or realistically appear to involve (to the point that a reasonable person would be fooled) - sexual contact with an animal. Not “cartoon rabbit.” Not “person in a fursuit.” Animal. […]

    Couldn't there conceivably be some ambiguous grey area with this interpretation? How close to looking like an animal can an anthropomorphic animal get before it is captured?

  • […] It says “likely to be mistaken for a photographic” media. This immediately rules out all forms of hand drawn and CG furry art from being covered by this law. It has to be a photo, video (or some AI generated facsimile). […]

    Are you interpreting "photographic" to mean "photorealistic"?

  • […] Furry artists, for all their flaws, […]

    What flaws are you referring to?

  • For clarity, the relevant reference is this one:

    • Type: Article. Title: "Canada overhauls Criminal Code to protect victims and keep kids safe from predators". Publisher: "Department of Justice Canada". Published: 2025-12-09. Accessed: 2025-12-09T22:46Z. URI: https://www.canada.ca/en/department-justice/news/2025/12/canada-overhauls-criminal-code-to-protect-victims-and-keep-kids-safe-from-predators.html.
      • Type: Text. Location: §"Keep our kids safe from predators">§"Crack down on online sextortion".

        […] This legislation proposes stronger measures to address online sexploitation and child luring, including by criminalizing threatening to distribute child sexual abuse and exploitation material and distributing bestiality depictions, which are known to be used to manipulate children for sexual purposes. […]

  • Entendre les memes arguments contre le Français au Canada hors-Quebec pour 50 ans.

    What argument was I making?

  • It specifically says bestiality involves an “animal” not “a depiction of an animal”. […]

    I think that's a good point.

  • The Department of Justice’s rationale is that it is “online sextortion” [2], and that it is known to be used to manipulate children for sexual purposes

    None of what you quoted from the bill says that. Where are you getting this from?

    The relevant citations are in the very text that you quoted — you can follow them in my references section at the bottom of the post 🙂

  • […] Given the […] feigned innocence of your question […]

    What's driving this assumption of yours?

  • […] What is your motivation to stir such a sensitive question among Canadians?

    I think it's important to understand the arguments of others before attempting to take a position.

  • I'm not sure that I understand your point. Could you elaborate? 🙂

  • […] It would make sense to relax official language rights in the Charter a bit, though. […]

    What changes are you suggesting?

  • […] Sure, have English as the baseline. A baseline should always be the most spoken common language. […]

    For clarity, can you define what a "baseline" is in this context?

  • Whether it “should” is irrelevant. It’s always been multilingual, and expecting people to change is nonsense.

    IMO, you can still voice your opinion without expectation of change.

  • Looks like you’re using a “just asking questions” approach to try to stir up frictions.

    I'm not sealioning. Why do you construe "curiosity" as sealioning?

  • Yes I did and do. Why do you think I don't?
