A principled path forward for free speech in Canada: Aaron Wudrick and Ryan Alford

A principled path forward for free speech in Canada: Aaron Wudrick and Ryan Alford

Welcome to Inside Policy Talks, the premier video podcast of the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.

In this episode you'll hear Aaron Wudrick in conversation with Ryan Alford on the fraying foundations for free speech in Canada. Whether aimed at the Freedom Convoy or at pro-Hamas / pro-Palestine protestors, calls for censorship have come from actors across the political spectrum. Aaron and Ryan asks how we can establish lines that maximize freedom of expression but still protect individuals with legitimate concerns about violence.
