The concept of civil rights goes back a long way in Canada, and in recent times was at the forefront of events such as the truckers’ convoy protest and Jordan Peterson’s fight against compelled speech, says a new book by Conrad Black.

The release of “Forgotten History: Civil Rights in Canada,” was announced by The Democracy Fund (TDF) on Aug. 17, making it the latest in a long list of books by the historian, commentator, and former newspaper owner.
