The Andrew Lawton Show

Listen Later

One of the many ideas discussed at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos this year was freedom of expression. Global elites often aren’t fond of freedom of expression, from tech companies that restrict their users’ speech to leaders of international organizations calling for regulation of what they call “misinformation.” True North’s Andrew Lawton takes a look at what some of them are trying to do – and why Canadians in particular should be worried.

Plus, the return of Andrew’s famous Davos hot chocolate rankings, back by popular demand.
