| Abstract: | I recently crossed a Rubicon in my political career. For the first time in 23 years of public service, I asked the OPP to come to my office to help answer the phones. My phone was ringing off the hook with threats of violence against me, my staff and my family. The messages came from a wide variety of people who were deep in the rage hole of anti-vax and world government conspiracy. The threat of violence was explicit. Welcome to Canadian political life in 2023. And it's not just politicians who face the threat. The intimidation is being used to target all manner of public figures. This violent intimidation is on rise because right-wing extremists know they can get away with it. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
