đ From Charlie Kirk to Jimmy Kimmel, freedom of speech is a hot topic.
đ I defend freedom of speech. Totally! It is vital to any free society.
** But letâs not confuse Freedom of speech with verbal incontinence.**
đ€ A right never exists alone: it always comes with a duty.
đ We have the right to speak⊠but we also have the duty to think before we speak.
Freedom of speech means that we CAN say anything. It does not mean that we MUST say everything, including the latest nonsense that crosses our mind.
So yes, we have the right to speak. But we also have the right to think. Andâtoo often forgottenâwe also have the right⊠to remain silent!
If you agree, please share! đ

Justice Minister Sean Fraser has introduced a bill in the House to combat hate crime, propaganda, and threats to identity.
Fine.
But hereâs my concern: for decades, Iâve argued that supply management in dairy is a disaster. If this bill passes, would I risk being arrested for saying so, since many dairy farmers see such criticism as an attack on their identity, even âhate speech,â and a challenge to their very existence?
