Summary

Over the past three years, the Government of Canada has passed six new laws to restrict and diminish your freedom to say out loud what you think and believe. This is not opinion. This is fact. Every one of these new laws promises something good. But, hidden in every bill is something you should never see in Canadian democracy. It is classic bait-and-switch.
