My hero George Jonas

George Jonas is Canada’s premier political intellectual. He is old and has a weak voice, so his speech (above) is being read by another. His distinctions between  ambitions and rights should be embedded in the mind of every responsible citizen. His battle with statism is never-ending.

His analysis is entirely consistent with that of Brian Lee Crowley’s Fearful Symmetry: The Fall and Rise of Canada’s Founding Values. I suspect that Crowley may offer a more hopeful view of the future.
