For the last two months, dozens of witnesses have been testifying in support of government censorship as part of the House of Commons’ justice committee’s study of online hate.

But on Tuesday, when three free speech advocates were finally able to testify, the meeting devolved into proof of why freedom of speech and open debate are so paramount to fight for in Canada.

True North’s Andrew Lawton was in the meeting and was live to talk about what happened.
