To me, all of the talk about fining universities, or forcing universities to allow or prohibit speakers is just another massive smokescreen. I'm not sure how much this will ever be invoked, and universities are generally pretty self governing by the student bodies on issues like this. With the questionable speaker at the UofL, they were forced to allow him to speak, but then the student body invoked their own right to protest when he arrived, and he ended up not speaking.
I hate to pile on the C-11 discussion, but this feels like a 'waving arms over here' issue so that the Bill is not overly scrutinized.
