It's interesting that you say that, because one of the biggest challenges today in democracy is that we have become so polarized. Everyone is on the opposite end of the debate, and we need to find ways to look at it from both perspectives.
It's really important as a foundational approach to this discussion that in order to have a good democracy and to ensure the ability of people to express themselves, you have to keep in mind concepts like equality, public safety and the public good. These are also important factors, I believe, in preserving a good democracy.
I keep hearing folks out there who say that Canada has gone in a bad direction, that people's rights are being taken away and that their freedom.... We hear this on social media all the time, but everywhere I look, Canada always fits into the top 10% of countries in the world where people have the best rights when it comes to expression.
Would you agree with that?
