Canadian government calls freedom terrorism

Conservative Treehouse"Driven by an extreme ideology that would seek to overthrow the existing government and create some kind of parallel structure where they get to make the rules based on untrammeled freedoms."

This sort of rhetoric is the culmination of decades of battleground prep in the media. When "freedom" and "conservative" are defined as "far-right" and "extreme" ideology, the link to terrorism and violence is a very short one.

Since when is freedom "extreme" or "far right"?

Freedom is the birthright of every human being. Governments rarely respect that, even when they claim -- as most do these days -- to receive their mandate from the people.
