Last year the newly reelected PM had a mandate to stregthen protection of freedom.of speech:
The first thing he did was to say that his victory was for “The Quiete Australians.”
But to his credit he has appointed two solid conservatives, Kevin Andrews and firebrand populist Pauline Hanson, to head up an enquiry into the federal family court.
I think Canada has a law protecting freedom of speech, but it seems to have so many holes, it amounts to “freedom to say anything the government approves of, but nothing else”. A better wording might be along the lines of “freedom to say things that offend”.
