Unfortunately, the government has passed Bill C-9, despite national outcry and efforts by the opposition and civil liberties groups like ours to see it scrapped or drastically amended. Some important amendments were made to the original draft—changes we proposed and

What would Bill C-9 mean for your freedom of expression? The “Combatting Hate Act” isn’t long, but it packs a punch. @FSU_Canada’s primary concerns are that the enactment of #BillC9 will result in the over prosecution of alleged hate-related offences and will criminalize forms

Self-censorship is baked into our DNA. Free speech maximalism serves as a counterweight to this force. ~@GabrielleJBauer Is Free Speech Maximalism Just for Young Men? https://t.co/z4eTMos8KA

Even with carte blanche to express ourselves, it’s difficult for humans to lay bare our true thoughts. Self-censorship is baked into our DNA.

Following the cancellation of @BenBankas last week, Nanaimo announces its new Comedy Rating System.

Once again, the heckler's veto has prevailed, as a publicly-funded theatre bows to pressure and cancels a sold-out comedy show by @BenBankas. The right of the audience to hear this comedian has been infringed too. The general rule in a free society should be, if it's not your

Yesterday, the BC Human Rights Tribunal once again ruled that ORDINARY laws protecting Canadians against discrimination and "hate" speech outweigh the CONSTITUTIONAL law protecting Canadians’ freedom of expression. Mr. Neufeld, a school board trustee, was ordered to pay the

Women overwhelmingly value equity and emotional safety over the pursuit of truth and academic freedom. Men are the opposite. It's going to take more parents standing up for their sons and fewer CEOs being browbeaten by their wives to stop the feminization of universities and

Freedom isn't free. It must be preserved & defended, sometimes at great cost. That might have sounded trite just days ago, but the realization is dawning that, while we were taking liberty for granted, much of Western society started down a very dark path. We have work to do.

Nearly half of Canadian university students are hiding their real beliefs. When campuses become hostile to free thought, young people stop learning and start surviving. Universities were meant to be spaces of rigorous debate and intellectual curiosity—not tax-funded

A welcome post by Mr. Poilievre. We need to shift the culture toward a free society again, and that change needs to come both from the top down and the bottom up. The Free Speech Union of Canada is here to help in this monumental task, led by Ms. Hamm's lawyer, Lisa Bildy.

A nurse with a spotless track record gets fined and suspended for pointing out there are two genders, and for praising world renowned author & women's rights advocate @jk_rowling. This is authoritarian censorship. We must restore free speech and free thinking in a free country.

The FSUC has sent a letter to Parks Canada & three municipalities, expressing concern about the spate of cancellations of @seanfeucht. We don't endorse anyone's views, but we believe strongly that public venues don't have the right to decide what views the public gets to hear.
