To day, we know that a 16 year old boy has been released from jail after he wrote and presented a fictional story titled 'Twisted' to his teacher and schoolmates [2]. This story was about a bullied teen who planned to blow up his school for revenge. This boy has been permanently expelled from his high school, has been released into his parents' custody on $10,000 bail with a lengthy list of conditions, cannot use the Internet, cannot leave his home unless accompanied by a parent, he must stay at least five kilometres away from his former school. Is this boy going to learn anything soon? Is society going to learn anything from the boy's determined social trapping? No, definitely no, both the boy and society are not going to learn from the boy's social trapping, and this is not freedom.

Alliance leader Stockwell Day has been abusing the public purse for his private bigotry [3], and professor Tom Flanagan comes to his help saying that the confidentiality agreement of his settlement with Goddard must be maintained for the sake of 'social civility' and because of the principled stand against contractual retroactivity, breach of confidence, and third-party interference [4]. Again, do we as individuals and society learn anything by keeping secretive the public cost of the corrupted behaviour of Mr. Stockwell Day? No, again we don't learn anything from keeping Day's settlement a secret, rather it would be a motivation to hide a secret with another secret with the result to restrict further learning and further freedom. And professor Flanagan, where is the civility shown by Stockwell Day?

More importantly, today, we have the Saskatoon Police, that after wrongfully enforcing the secret over the sexual Scandal of the Century [5] for some 10 years with the complicity of the Government of Saskatchewan, is asking the Court on January 16, 2001 to permanently gag the plaintiff Richard Klassen and eventually dismiss his $10-Million lawsuit [6]. Again, are we as individuals and society learning by having a police and a government who keep their wrongdoings a secret? No, we are not learning by having a secretive police and a secretive government, and this is why our freedom is being further and further eroded.

It is very tiring to see so much depravation among our institutional leadership and realize we must defend our individual freedom by ourselves, taking our own justice in our hands as individuals and with no help from the justice system [7]. I must say that in Saskatchewan there is no justice and there is no freedom, but human rights are stronger than statutory rights, and we will take our freedom back. This is a certainty!
