Guess who's succeeding in adding blasphemy laws in Canada?

Your sources don't strike me as... uh... particularly unbiased. Do you have anything that is a bit more robust?

This is a tangent, but I've been thinking about this (recurring), question quite a bit recently. First off, I totally agree that these sources are biased. On the other hand, at least with Gatestone, they don't pretend not to be. On the other hand there are sources that claim to be unbiased, but aren't (CNN, xBC, and so on). To me it comes down to whether the claims are true or false.

That said, perhaps you'll be more comfortable with this source?:

The Left is ushering in a caliphate. Even in your thread on Swedish feminists wearing hijabs, many Leftists who are atheists supported the decision to wear the hijab. None of them have interacted nor spoken with Iranian women, who hate the law. None of them know how suffocating it is. None of them know of the women who defy it end up in jail. Yet they defend it because it's a part of their rhetoric.

We have no choice but to join the Right. As divided as it is, as much of a mess as it is, as much as many of us would be hated by a huge chunk of the Right, it's the only side that gives a **** about Western civilization.

The Left wants to destroy the West.

Every time a controversial speaker gets banned from a university, the "left pole" is at work.

Where's the anti-blasphemy legislation?

There is none that I could find either. Since this is in a debate section, as far as I can see this is a classic example where the following applies

The last I checked, the Right still doesn't want me having the full privileges, liberties, and rights bestowed upon me by right of being a citizen.

It makes me wonder how many people are aware that in some places the West does actually have, already, what can be considered blasphemy laws? Several years ago in Poland, for example, the singer for the blackened-death metal band Behemoth was charged with insulting the Holy Bible and Christianity when he tore up a Bible at a concert and declared the book a great evil.
Though I do not agree with such laws, we must be vigilant to discern among things that are more-or-less already on the books throughout the West, laws that are really nothing more than anti-discrimination laws, and laws that would truly restrict the freedom of speech in favor for a particular religion.
