After Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole accused Justin Trudeau of not defending free speech and standing with French President Emmanuel Macron on the Paris attack, the prime minister defended himself, saying the government will always defend Canadians’ rights.
“We will always defend political rights, Canadians’ rights, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, freedom of expression, freedom of religion. All the rights Canadians expect governments to defend, we will always defend,” Trudeau replied during Question Period in Tuesday’s House of Commons.
