Howard Galganov and Jean-Serge Brisson are political activists.
A judge called them “busybodies and interlopers.”
To add injury to insult last month, the judge ordered them to pay $180,000 in reimbursement of legal fees. Their crime: Challenging a Township of Russell bylaw forcing all exterior business signs to be in both English and French, and no other language.
Russell is on the eastern outskirts of Ottawa and has a population of about 14,000. It declared itself bilingual in 1989, undertaking to provide its services in both official languages. In 2008 it passed a sign bylaw requiring all exterior business signs to be bilingual, meaning their content must be identical in both and only French and English. Presumably the bylaw was passed to prevent the assimilation of the Francophone minority.

Wow. What a slap in the face for all Canadians. Read it and weep. This is pre-Magna Carta. The State dictates and you shall listen. No property rights, no sovereignty on your own property. No right to express yourself as you please. You’ve been owned. Get used to it.
I have said this before and articles like this make it plain that it is worth saying again. Protect yourself from the government. Get your land patent grant.
