Frye in “The Analogy of Democracy”: “Law is the expression of temporal authority; justice is law informed by freedom and equality.” (CW , 176)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The headline in yesterday’s\u00a0Toronto\u00a0Sun <\/em>bellowed, “MAKE ‘EM PAY!”, referring to the Occupy Toronto demonstrators assembled on public land.<\/p>\n

In case there is any doubt in anyone’s mind, here, in its entirely — all thirty-five unambiguous words of it — is section II of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms:<\/p>\n

Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n
\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
(a<\/em>)<\/td>\nfreedom of conscience and religion;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
(b<\/em>)<\/td>\nfreedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
(c<\/em>)<\/td>\nfreedom of peaceful assembly; and<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
(d<\/em>)<\/td>\nfreedom of association.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

Frye, of course, identifies freedom as one of four primary concerns in Words with Power.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
