“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
