James Turk (@jameslturk) is the Director of the Centre for Free Expression at Ryerson University. James and Leslie discuss the importance of free expression in a democratic society, the futility and counterproductive nature of censorship, and what limits on expression are reasonable and justified. They also talk about the "marketplace of ideas" and how it informs free expression, and the surprising connection between monopolies and the stifling of speech.
