The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal described Richard Warman as:
He [Warman] advised the Tribunal that he has spent 15 years campaigning against hate messages. About five years ago, he focused on the internet. Although he was not qualified as an expert, I allowed him to provide some background on the material that was entered into evidence.
Para 8: Warman v Warman ruling
Mr. Warman is a resident of Ottawa. He has developed an interest in human rights issues over the past 15 years, and is actively involved in anti-racism groups. For a time, he worked for the Commission. Most recently, he has focussed his attention on hate propaganda disseminated through the Internet, by monitoring the Internet activity of what he describes as extreme right-wing and neo-Nazi groups.
Para 4: Warman v. Kulbashian et all.
Why should Richard Warman be the only citizen to have his own personal inquisition?
Who has availed themselves of the "human rights" protected by Section XIII? In its entire history, over half of all cases have been brought by a sole "complainant," one Richard Warman. Indeed, Mr. Warman has been a plaintiff on every single Section XIII case before the federal "human rights" star chamber since 2002 — and he's won every one. That would suggest that no man in any free society anywhere on the planet has been so comprehensively deprived of his human rights. Well, no. Mr. Warman doesn't have to demonstrate that he's been deprived of his human rights, only that it's "likely" (i.e. "highly un-") that someone somewhere will be deprived of some right sometime. Who is Richard Warman? What's his story? Well, he's a former employee of the Canadian Human Rights Commission: an investigator. Same as Shirlene McGovern.
Isn't there something a little odd in a supposedly necessary Canadian federal "human rights" system used all but exclusively by one lone Canadian who served as a long-time employee of that system? Why should Richard Warman be the only citizen to have his own personal inquisition? You can hardly blame the Canadian Islamic Congress and the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada and no doubt the Supreme All- Powerful Islamic Executive Council of Swift Current, Sask., for now figuring they'd like a piece of the human rights action.

v. Kyburz In this case, the complainant was a lawyer of Jewish heritage who filed a complaint against an individual who had a Web site that he claimed discriminated against persons of Jewish heritage. After finding that the Web site would expose an identifiable group to hatred or contempt, the tribunal balanced that against the freedom of speech. The tribunal followed the precedent set by the Supreme Court of Canada in finding that the restriction of free speech was necessary to curtail hate propaganda. |

Richard Warman speaking notes to his keynote speech to the violent Anti-Racist Action, Mr. Warman described his motivation to file complaints:
On July 6th,
2006, Richard Warman gave a keynote
speech to the ARA in Toronto entitled “Maximum
Disruption: Stopping Neo-Nazi’s by (Almost) any means
necessary”
In the speech Mr. Warman says:
“I’ve come to the conclusion that I can be most effective by using what I like to describe as a ‘maximum disruption’ approach. … If I think that they’ve violated the Canadian Human Rights Act, then I’ll look at all of the potential targets and file complaints against them starting on a ‘worst offender’ basis, although sometimes if I just find people to be particularly annoying this may move them up the list a bit”
Warman continues:
“The ‘maximum disruption’ part comes in because wherever I think it will be most helpful, or even if I just feel it will be the most fun, I strongly believe in hitting the neo-nazis on as many of these fronts as possible either at the same time or one after the other. I say this because it keeps them off-balance and forces them to respond to things that focus their energies on defending themselves…” |
