I like this idea for a recurring threat (especially the commitment to civility), but this particular question is almost impossible to debate in the hypothetical or abstract. I think the vast majority of people agree that fundamental rights must be subject, as the Charter puts it, "to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society."

Now, there is plenty of room to debate and reasonably disagree on whether a particular limit is reasonable, prescribed by law, or can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society. However, those questions are very, very specific to the proposed limits and the circumstances being relied on to justify them, etc.
