Here, in Québec, freedom of speech is something very important. There has been debates and trials, trying to establish the limits one should respect while expressing him/herself.

Basically, on the face of the law, we can say, sing, write a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g we wish.

No matter what…

What I find highly interesting with that, is that by giving that much freedom to people, we give every individual the duty to set their own limit.

The question is not “what does the law allows me to say?” It is “what do I allow myself to say?”

And I think where we set that limit says a lot about ourself.

Any thoughts about that?
