But for some, the rising temperatures are part of a controversy that, for good reason, simply won&#8217;t melt away. The Canada Summer Jobs issue shows no signs of cooling down. It continues to garner press headlines and public attention across the country. The nub of the issue is government imposition of political ideology in order to receive government benefit. Liberal democracies are the planet\u2019s one form of government that not only permits contentious debate but does so with the promise of no government reprisal. We take a dim view of being told by the state what we are to think and do on issues that speak to the core of who we are as human beings.<\/p>\n<p>The government\u2019s requirement that religious communities \u201ctick the box\u201d (attesting that they agree with the state\u2019s view of \u201cCharter values\u201d, \u201cother human rights\u201d, and \u201caccess to abortion\u201d) in order to receive public money to hire students for the summer has been greeted with staunch opposition. The Prime Minister and the Minister responsible for the program have said that they will not fund groups who do not \u201csupport Charter rights\u201d. In other words, groups who do not endorse abortion are not in line with government policy and therefore will not receive funding.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Government\u2019s position is coming under new scrutiny. It was recently discovered that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/dogwoodbc.ca\/\">Dogwood<\/a>, an activist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/politics\/kinder-morgan-summer-job-program-dogwood-1.4634498\">group against the Kinder Morgan<\/a> pipeline expansion in B.C., was given CSJ funding, even though the group&#8217;s &#8220;core mandate&#8221; is contrary to the government&#8217;s promised support for the pipeline. Meanwhile, charitable groups that did not agree to the government\u2019s position on abortion were denied grants. Ironically, the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YsPd4PQUKTY?t=136\">PM rose in the House<\/a> to defend that decision by insisting that his government believes in free speech. He claimed, \u201cwe will not remove funding from advocacy organizations because we as a government happen to disagree with them!\u201d Mr. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/canada\/newfoundland-labrador\/scott-simms-removed-from-fisheries-chair-1.4627724\">Scott Simms<\/a>&nbsp;and Mr. <a href=\"http:\/\/nationalpost.com\/news\/politics\/second-liberal-mp-denounces-summer-jobs-attestation-says-it-misrepresents-the-charter\">John McKay<\/a>, both government MPs, would certainly beg to differ. They took a stand against the government precisely because it did remove funding from groups with pro-life beliefs. In retribution, Mr. Simms was removed as chair of the House committee on fisheries. The entire CSJ issue is seen by McKay as \u201ca lamentable state of affairs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Upon hearing the PM&#8217;s statements, the House went into an uproar over the apparent hypocrisy &#8212; as did the political commentators: Rob Breakenridge of&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/4172157\/rob-breakenridge-dogwood-canada-summer-jobs\/?utm_source=@globalnews&amp;utm_medium=Twitter\">Global News<\/a><\/em>, John Ibbitson in&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/opinion\/article-trudeaus-student-grant-kerfuffle-is-the-latest-act-that-could\/\">The Globe and Mail<\/a>,<\/em> Rex Murphy in <em><a href=\"http:\/\/nationalpost.com\/opinion\/rex-murphy-grants-to-anti-pipeline-activists-a-hammer-blow-to-the-heads-of-the-unemployed\">The National Post<\/a><\/em>. Dr. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/video?clipId=1309534\">Andrew Bennett<\/a>, former Canadian Ambassador for Religious Freedom, also spoke out on the issue.&nbsp; Across the country, people took note of the doublespeak.<\/p>\n<p>The irony continues as <a href=\"http:\/\/nationalpost.com\/opinion\/kelly-mcparland-who-would-have-guessed-the-liberals-would-reopen-the-abortion-debate\">Kelly McParland<\/a> points out that the CSJ controversy has re-opened the abortion debate &#8212; a debate that the government presumably wanted to silence rather than initiate. Canadians are awakening to the reality that Canada, unlike most liberal democracies, does not have a law on abortion. Abortion, in fact, is not a constitutionally protected right, yet the government continues to obfuscate on the matter.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-26808 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cccc.org\/news_blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_3891-1024x768.jpg?resize=300%2C225&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cccc.org\/news_blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_3891-1024x768.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cccc.org\/news_blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_3891-1024x768.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cccc.org\/news_blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_3891-1024x768.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/4164477\/canada-summer-jobs-patty-hajdu-attestation\/\">We now know<\/a> that t<span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">he Canada Summer Jobs controversy had its genesis in the abortion issue. The <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 1rem;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.arcc-cdac.ca\/home.html\">Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"> (ARCC) were dismayed that crisis pregnancy centres (CPC) were receiving CSJ funding, and mounted a letter-writing campaign to the government against it.

CCCC is currently reviewing our legal options to support our members and to support the important principles of freedom that underlie our liberal democracy. We are of the view that this government action cannot go unchallenged.<\/p>\n<p>In many ways, the government CSJ action is but the thin edge of the wedge. It represents a trajectory that is not safe for the long term of our democratic institutions. We will be making an announcement in the coming days\/weeks as to what legal actions we will be supporting.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned. The summer is coming.
