“…as an adult I have had it up to here with the idea that I have to murder my own mind in order to fit in with a chattering class in this country that is betraying this country by chattering around issues, around problems and participating in avoidance instead of confrontation.
“Confronting people and their lies is impolite in a country that worships politeness. When did politeness conquer freedom. I don’t know. There was no newspaper headline declaring this. No radio or TV bulletin. No big lunged broadcaster saying ‘Breaking News in Canada: Freedom of speech has been replaced by the Tyranny of politeness.’
