Try refreshing your browser, or Erin Weir: The NDP were wrong to call for the Proud Boys to be labelled as terrorists Back to video Freedom of speech is essential but not absolute. The motion passed unanimously, with no member of Parliament wishing to appear to defend the Proud Boys. Indeed, the U.S. has not designated the Proud Boys as terrorists. That may make some Canadians feel safer, but it may also drive former Proud Boys underground and radicalize them even further. Misuse of the Anti-Terrorism Act is a far greater threat to Canadian democracy and freedom than the Proud Boys ever were.
