“I am Canadian, a free Canadian,

free to speak without fear,

free to worship God in my own way,

free to stand for what I think right,

free to oppose what I believe wrong,

free to choose those who govern my country.

This heritage of freedom I pledge to upload for myself and all mankind.”

John Diefenbaker, House of Commons Debates, 1 July 1960
