Fourth-year engineering student Cameron Van Donkersgoed delivered a speech to the crowd at the Freedom Convoy protest at Parliament Hill in Ottawa, on Feb. 12, 2022.
Mr. Van Donkersgoed’s speech entitled “A Sound of Horns” is an evocative outcry against governments’ and universities’ attacks on fundamental freedoms including freedom of expression and of life, liberty, and security of the person:
“It used to be the case that universities rewarded students for independent thought. But now at the University of Guelph, and every other post-secondary institution in our country, students who are smart enough to do their own research and come to their own informed conclusions are literally banned from campus and de-registered from their programs.” — C. Van Donkersgoed
