Wearing a mask at a riot becomes a crime today

Wear a mask, go to jail for 10 years, rob the country, get a bonus!

A bill that would ban the wearing of masks during a riot or unlawful assembly and carries a maximum 10-year prison sentence with a conviction of the offence is scheduled to become law today.
Bill C-309, a private member's bill introduced by Conservative MP Blake Richards in 2011, passed third reading in the Senate on May 23 and is expected to be proclaimed law during a royal assent ceremony in the Senate this afternoon.
Richards, MP for Wild Rose, Alta., said the bill is meant to give police an added tool to prevent lawful protests from becoming violent riots, and that it will help police identify people who engage in vandalism or other illegal acts. The bill is something that police, municipal authorities and businesses hit hard by riots in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and other cities in recent years, were asking for, according to Richards.
"The provisions of my bill are effective immediately, which means police officers across Canada now have access to these tools to protect the public from masked rioters," Richards said in a statement being released today.
(More at the link. This of course includes Anarchopanda, a teacher in a panda outfit who marches in solidarity with the protesting students and who has become quite popular; police took his costume head into custody recently, to much laughter and derision on the part of Canadian media. This new "law" also allows police to do the following to peaceful protesters, so its actual intent is easy to spot...)
Graham Crackers DUmmy had a thread (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023048447) about this too.

Anyone wearing that stupid V for Vendetta mask deserves to be arrested for public douchebaggery.

So how is all that Freedom working out for you up North? I remember some stupid Canadian over at CU trying to tell me and others about how free they are there in Canada and I reminded them of their hate speech laws on Speaking on religion and other things and they wouldn't have any of it.

Canada is far more tolerant of liberal lawbreaking than we are, This law is due solely to Occupy's despicable acts of Leftist lawlessness. More than likely it was a group of liberal legislators that voted this in.
Liberals are their own worst enemies.

Based on most of the liberals that I've seen out in the wild I would think it would be a law that the MUST wear a mask.

Does this law also cover the Muzzies that wrap a checked rag around their face......bet it don't.

Richly deserved, I might add.
I have no major problems with this law. If you have concealed yourself for a protest event, you are up to no good.

We should make a law that forces left-wing protestors to wear a helmet.

Most of them had to wear helmets throughout their youth. For some reason I'm picturing Nads in one of those Nixon masks.
