This
paper explains that
freedom of
speech, from a Canadian standpoint, allows for the open expression of beliefs, while at the same time cautioning people to use sound judgment in their attempt to exercise that right. The author points out that Internet transmissions can be judged and ruled on in court using the same criteria and decision-making process, which is used for non-Internet freedom of speech questions and cases. The paper suggests that the Canadian Government, in regard to its freedom of speech and the World Wide Web, needs to clearly define the meaning of a
hate speech and to legislate how the laws will be applied. Table of Contents Introduction The Question Freedom of Speech Canada Proposals Conclusion
