The typical journalist's typical lead for the typical Canadian story nowadays is along this line: that Canadians are hard at work trying to gain a reputation as a nation of rapid social change.

The rights and freedoms that citizens enjoy - give a little here; take a little there - are still the same as they were in the beginning.

Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law.

We seem determined to outpace the Scandinavians and the Dutch for social change.

It is said that a neo-conservative is a liberal who has been mugged by reality.

This may sound bizarre to some of you, but in Canada, one of the two legislative branches never go to the electorate. This is the Senate, which, like the Supreme Court, is appointed by the Government..and is therefore Liberal-dominated.

The United States began life in a moment of time with a Declaration of Independence, and then proceeded to secure that new and distinct national existence by establishing a formal set of ground rules - a written constitution, which outlined the institutions of government of the new nation.

Time and time again, history has proved that the conservatives are right and the liberals are wrong.

I believe in freedom of speech, but I believe we should also have the right to comment on freedom of speech.
