Canada gets worse every day (Aug 12 2004 23:31 GMT) - Canadian tax authority warned churches to be silent on politics: "Dawna Lynn Labonte, a media relations officer for the federal Minister of National Revenue, said that not only would churches be penalised for telling their faithful to vote for a certain party or candidate, they would also be penalised for coming out strongly on an issue on which the parties were opposed, such as abortion or same-sex 'marriage'. "All moral issues including even poverty seem to be covered by the election time gag-order on religions. Giving an example, Labonte said, 'Taking out a full-page ad before Christmas on homelessness might not be considered political, but doing the same thing the week of an election might be considered political.'" |
