You guys need to get out of this country more often!
I happened to have lived in some of those countries. They aren't as free as USA. They are socialist countries though.
I take one example. Firearm ownership, a huge indicator for individual or human freedom. None of the top 10 guarantees firearm ownership like we do.
A truly free country would be a libertarian country where individual freedom and responsibility are truly valued. A country with the freedom to own everything, pay no property or personal taxes, marry whom you want and with legal gambling, prostitution and drugs etc. and without political correctness.
Lol, yes. And in Canada, be sure not to offend or insult anyone, or it'll be the hoosegow for you!
While I still think the US is a "free" country, it becomes harder and harder to support that stance as we make laws to ban more and more stuff and behaviors.
Now, could you link to someone in Canada who has actually been "hoosegowed" for insulting or offending someone else? ... Anyone at all? .... Perhaps even a juvenile? ........

LOL!
From your first link...
"But someone else -- Carter says a woman in Canada -- noticed the comment and reported it to authorities. "

Yeppers; and because Carter says she also rushed right on down there to arrest him, throw in for months and put the case before the courts to have it languish for two years until the supreme court has had enough time to consider if indeed it was HATE speech rather than merely insulting or offending as you mistakenly characterize the law in Canada.
I notice you still haven't provided a link to a similar case in Canada ........
