The Government’s Quiet Attack on Your Rights
Are your freedoms quietly being eroded in Canada? David Leis talks with Josh Dehaas about Bills C-8, C-9, and C-14—and why they should worry every citizen. Bill C-8 threatens free speech by regulating what you can say online, Bill C-9 could interfere with property rights, and Bill C-14 expands government powers in ways that could impact personal freedoms. From court decisions in BC to schools shaping the next generation’s values, this conversation exposes how rights we take for granted are under pressure. But it’s not all doom and gloom, citizens can act.
