Section 13 Swan Song?

 The story of Cran Campbell, who is on a mission to keep hate-speech off Craigslist:

After sending a complaint to the CHRC in the fall, Campbell received a response this month. In a letter dated Jan. 12, early resolution advisor Jamie Masters said the CHRC will send a letter to Craigslist advising that some of the posts in the "Rants and Raves" section of the Vancouver website may be in violation of the Canadian Human Rights Act, as well as Craigslist's own Terms of Use Policy.

The commission will take further action if this attempt at early resolution is unsuccessful at remedying the situation.

The story also notes that Campbell is spearheading an attempt to defeat Storseth's Bill C-304, which would repeal section 13 of the CHRA.  I don't see a website or anything devoted to that. I will try and email to see what plans he's got.

This guy is just another over sensitive cry baby with no hobbies.
