In this presentation, Leslie Rosenblood (Secularism Chair for the Centre for Inquiry Canada) will discuss secularism in Canada: what it is, what it isn’t, and why it’s the means to maximal freedom for all. He will cover the history of secularism in Canada, compare it with the United States, provide an assessment of where Canada currently adheres to secular principles, and how it can improve in the future.
