If We Don't Believe In Our Own Values Stick A Fork In Us

There's something unsettling if not dire about countries in the West (Canada included but not the United States which is quite literally the last country standing on such matters) putting its own citizens in prison for expressing their right to free speech.

We're seeing across the West people held to account by being fined or thrown in prison for having the temerity to, for example, insult or criticize Islam.

We've decided to not believe in free speech - a cornerstone value of what defines us as the Liberal West- in order to not offend others.

This is an incredibly unwise if not dangerous path were treading.

We need to reverse course.
