Last night, CBC’s The Hour had an interview about Bill C-10 with the porker homophobe Charles McVety, the president of the Canada Family Action Coalition. Bill C-10 is a 600+ page document proposing amendments to the Income Tax Act, one of which would allow Canada’s Heritage Minister to revoke tax credits for films or TV shows “thought to be offensive or not in the public interest”. Our wonderful elected representatives seem to not have actually read the document in full before passing it in the House of Commons, and there’s now outrage in Canada’s artistic communities on how these proposed changes will effectively amount to censorship. McVety, reportedly “one of the most powerful leaders of the Christian Right in this country,” appears to have a fair amount of influence in the drafting of this provision in C-10, and the whole of the country should be very worried about this and the rise of the Christian Right in Canada in general. And, judging by his performance last night, this man is actually an idiot and his influence can bring nothing good whatsoever to this country. Watch the interview for yourself to see, and see if you can get anything meaningful from McVety. There are moments when it seems like he’s approaching coherency–on a couple of occasions he appears close to suggesting that the Canadian government shouldn’t offer tax credits to any filmmakers, but he’s not bright enough to even connect those dots–but he’s too dim to follow anything through. All that I got from the interview is that sex makes McVety very uncomfortable, and therefore sex should make all other Canadians feel uncomfortable. I’m certain his wife agrees.
