On Wednesday, just two days after a “radicalized” man ran over two Canadian soldiers in a mall parking lot, a gunmen opened fire at Canada’s National War Memorial and at Parliament Hill, killing one soldier and wounding a security guard. He was later killed by an armed guard.
Within less than two days, rhetoric has risen unusually high for Canada in the wake of what have been called “terror attacks,” bringing terrorism home along with fresh demands for new police powers.
This time, the new powers would include ‘preventive arrests,’ potentially taking the country down the slippery slope of guilty-until-proven innocent authoritarian policies.

I don't know about Canada, but my understanding of "Innocent until proven Guilty" is essentially an American safeguard of individual God-given rights. Free speech is not protected in Canada either - a woman sits in a Canada prison for the simple act of protesting in front of abortion clinics. America is the last hope for the world... and how we have squandered it.
