UNPLANNED MOVIE: In Rare Display Of Corporate Courage, Cineplex Defends Free Speech Amid Radical Far-Left Liberal Criticism

Desperate radical-left Trudeau Liberals try to make people afraid of a movie.

With the Trudeau Liberals feeling the possibility of power slipping away in the upcoming election, they’re doing everything they can to try and demonize the Canadian People.

The latest effort was initiated by Trudeau’s taxpayer-funded Chief of Staff Katie Telford.

After seeing that the pro-life movie “UnPlanned” would be shown in Cineplex theatres, Telford went on a radical-left anti-free speech rant:

“This is happening, at least in part, thanks to the support received by federal Conservative politicians.

Controversial anti-abortion film Unplanned to hit more than 24 Canadian theatres (link: https://www.thestar.com/entertainment/movies/2019/07/03/controversial-anti-abortion-film-unplanned-to-hit-more-than-24-canadian-theatres.html) thestar.com/entertainment/… via
@torontostar”

“Sure. It is a decision worth noting and wondering about when conservative politicians decide to promote it and petition on its behalf though.”

“Pointing out that federal conservative politicians promoted this 🎥 led to quite the response! Fact: conservative politicians screened this film on parliament hill
Fact: conservative politicians have been petitioning on the films behalf.
Interesting use of the word hysteria”

Telford also retweeted a New York Times writer calling the movie “propaganda”

“Federal conservative politicians should not be supporting propaganda”

That’s how the radical left Liberals look at things: Opinions they agree with are ‘facts,’ while any other opinion is ‘propaganda.’

What makes this so disturbing is that Telford and the Liberals have been pushing to crack down on social media, and are now attacking movies they disagree with.

Rare display of corporate courage

Stunningly however, rather than give in to the far-left radical attempt to stoke the twitter mob initiated by Telford, Cineplex instead took the common-sense, mainstream Canadian position of defending free speech.

Here’s how they responded on Twitter:

“<p>Hi there,</p><p><br></p><p>We understand and can appreciate the concerns some have expressed about the film. That said, we have a long legacy of not censoring content, as our role as a film exhibitor is to provide our guests with movie choices.We believe it …”

“As a film exhibitor we provide our guests with movie choices. We believe it is up to the public to decide whether they would like to see a particular film and our guests can give voice to their views and opinions by choosing to buy a ticket to the movie or not.”

This is a great, and rare stand for free speech being taken by a company. Cineplex deserves credit for respecting their customers and treating them like adults. If you don’t like a movie, don’t buy a ticket. If you do like it, then buy a ticket.

Pretty simple stuff.

The fact that the Liberals are trying to get a movie kicked out of a theatre goes to show how far outside the mainstream they have become. Instead of being a centrist party, the Liberals have turned into a radical extremist far-left party, trying to use government power and the implied threat of government power to shut down opinions they disagree with.

Very disturbing.
