To make the world comply with my ideals? No, don't have to be mine, but when in Canada they do have to comply with the Canadian constitution which includes the Charter and freedom of expression.

At risk of getting drawn into another spat that I appear to have avoided to now, let me provide a literal 'case in point':

I do not believe most of what Mr. Pawlowski preaches but I can say that I actually have fought (and partially won) for his rights to say it.

You may need to put a bag over your head but I'm good with being known as a guy prepared to do a little volunteer work that I happen to know how to do to help a person who says free speech is being lost on university campuses.

I have kids I expect will attend a university campus one day. It is an important issue to me. So my money goes where my mouth is.
