How far we have fallen ...

“I am a Canadian,

a free Canadian,

free to speak without fear,

free to worship in my own way,

free to stand for what I think right,

free to oppose what I believe wrong,

free to choose those who shall govern my country.

This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all
mankind.”


Proclaimed by Prime Minister John Diefenbaker, July 1, 1960, House of Commons* enshrined in the Canadian Bill of Rights

How did we get from there to Soviet Canuckistan, where I have had to take a good deal of time on this blog defending people who are merely trying to exercise what used to be their rights?

It is Election Day in Canada. If you are a Canadian and can prove it, vote.

If you are not a Canadian, pray for Canada.
