Freedom of speech is the second most important right we have next to life itself, as without it we have no way of defending our other rights. And like a muscle it will atrophy unless exercised, and I insist on doing so.

And when by law you can’t tell your son that he’s a boy or your daughter that she’s a girl without the threat of being thrown in jail for five years, that second most important God-given right is history.

And note that not a single Tory raised their voice in protest when the Liberal/NDP coalition pushed Bill C-4 the Conversion Therapy bill through the House of Commons in 2021.
