  2. Comments should be family friendly and not contain abusive or vulgar language, sexually explicit subject matter, hate speech, derogatory terms or offensive content. 
  3. Comments should not contain personal or defamatory remarks about a person’s age, education, ethnicity, race, family status, gender, national origin, class, physical ability, qualities, religion, sexual orientation, thought processes or personality. 
  4. A posted comment is the opinion of the poster only and does not imply endorsement or agreement by the City of Canby, its elected officials or employees. 
  5. Comments should not endorse candidates or a particular stance or current ballot measure. 
  6. The City reserves the right to determine which comments are unacceptable for its page and citizens who repeatedly violate this policy may be prohibited.
