“I am a Canadian,
a free Canadian, 
free to speak without fear,
free to worship in my own way,
free to stand for what I think right,
free to oppose what I believe wrong,

AND free to choose those
who shall govern my country.
This heritage of freedom
I pledge to uphold
for myself and all mankind.”

— John Diefenbaker
