    Freedom of speech IS a freedom from consequences. Sadly most people using freedom of speech term today don’t understand that it doesn’t apply to the context of the discussion. The whole article is just complete nonsense.

      The idea that you can say reprehensible things then have your rights violated because others don’t want to associate with you anymore is the complete nonsense. Further, Canada doesn’t go by ‘freedom of speech’, it goes by freedom of expression.

          No, I very much do. You don’t seem to understand the laws of the country involved, though.

              That principle being, in your opinion, “I can say whatever I want and you have to associate with me?” I suggest you do some more studying.

              Also, freedom of speech doesn’t exist in Canadian law, so I guess not.

                What are you even talking about? Once again, you just don’t understand freedom of speech. Just like most people.
