text: I can agree that Canadian conservatives have to clearly demonstrate that they aren't racist Trumpers.  However, I disagree with Ibbiton's statement "And Mr. Scheer has his own populist streak, such as his campaign pledge to cut funding to universities that don’t protect the right of free speech on campuses." It's a matter of principle that universities are the forums of free speech (remember the Berkeley free speech movement over 50 years ago?). Universities who neglect this commitment should lose their funding.
