So today I'm talking to two of my compatriots, I suppose, in this ongoing discussion in Canada

about free speech issues, including compelled speech.

And I met Jared Brown and Bruce Party.

Jared's a practicing lawyer and Bruce is a professor at Queens University in the Law

School there.

And I met them both when we manifested a mutual interest last year in Bill C-16, which

we all regarded as a piece of legislation that was infringing on the rights to free speech

of Canadian individuals in a manner that hadn't been ever attempted before.

And more recently, the Law Society of Upper Canada, soon to be known as the Law Society

of Ontario, has put for requirement for all of its members, so all of the lawyers in Ontario

to produce a document of principle that we all have been talking about, the three of us

have been talking about, that we regard as another but far more egregious example of compelled

speech.

So I'm going to let Jared introduce himself and say a little bit about who he is.

He testified with me at the Canadian Senate last year at Bruce Party, also testified

at the Senate on Bill C-16.

And Bruce was also the lawyer that I debated.

He played devil's advocate at Queens University.

And some of you watching this will be familiar with that video.

So Jared, I'll let you introduce yourself and then Bruce.

And then Bruce, Bruce recently wrote a column for the National Post on this new requirement
