cole is column nis for now toronto's weekly entertainment tabloid, she says coulter got exactly what she deserved. thank you very much for being here. why do you believe that? >> well, i don't think that she's really an appropriate choice to be speaking on campuses in canada. doesn't mean she couldn't be speaking anywhere else, but our view up here is that we're trying to create an environment where it's a place to think and learn and i don't think that ann coulter contributes to that. megyn: why do you say that? because you know, here in the united states, and i know it's different in canada to some extent, here in the united states we believe that the answer to speech you don't like is not less speech, it's more speech and that's the bedrock of our first amendment of which we're very proud of in this country. >> we don't have that same political culture here in our country and that's exactly what the provost of the university of ottawa was trying to tell ann coulter when he advised her to be careful about what she said, because she could indeed violate some of our hate speech laws.

allan is in toronto tonight, chantal and andrew are in ottawa.'m not sure if he was suggesting we should all sing it all in french. be interesting if that is what he was saying. >> controversial proposal. >> peter: yes. >> go right ahead. >> peter: yes, exactly. it's hard to take too much out of the words of a finance minister on budget day, they're so on message track and you can't get them off it, but i was struck a little bit by how many things that jim flaherty said himself that could go wrong to throw everything out the window that he announced today. i mean, what did you make of that? was he being frank or giving himself a possibility of an out on all this? >> well, you asked him some pretty frank questions, and that is the problem. we don't all turn into pumpkins if we run a deficit one year, two years, but multiple years, that's the problem. the danger is if you assume the best, if you run an economic docket where everything has to work out fine, then you are leaving yourself exposed the longer you take to reduce that deficit. if you redu

some programs are more informal, such as a program that was recently announced within at toronto thattween when someone has adopted a radical ideology and actually resorted to terrorism. it was basically trying to break that linkage between accepting radicalism and actually acting on it. ultimately, if that program fails, that de-radicalization program, then you are back restarted without the program. on the other hand, de- radicalization programs can present a danger in certain circumstances. when you are taking people who are convicted terrorists and putting them in a program where they will be released and allegedly to radicalized. -- allegedly de-radicalized. i agree with what marisa said, the de-radicalization strategy should be embraced as part of a broader effort against terrorism, but i think we need to understand the risks that are attendant to that. in particular, the way these programs are studied and the way these programs are understood and debated, i think we have one significant blind spot, and that is ideology. i will talk about that at some greater length, but first,

allen is in toronto, chantilly and influence in iowa.ot sure if he was suggesting we should all sing in french. controversy proposal? >> yes. you know, it's hard to take too much out of the words of the finance minister on budget. there is a long-distance truck and to can't get them off it but i was struck a little bit by how many things jane said himself that could go wrong that throw everything out the window that he announced today. what did you make of that? was he being frank or giving himself the possibility of a note of this? andrew? >> you asked him some pretty blunt questions and that's part of it. we've run the deficit one year, two years but if you're running them multiple years that is the problem and the danger is that if you assume the best. if you run an economic document everything has to work out fine and then you are leaving yourself exposed the longer you take to reduce the deficit. if you reduce the deficit in three years the reason that's better is you are less exposed to uncertainty and risk of a spike in interest r

there was a program recently announced in toronto that was serving a function in between when someoneas adopted a radical ideology and actually resorted to violence. in other words, trying to bring that -- break that linkage between radicalism and acting upon it. the but ultimately, if that fails, the deradicalization program, then you are back where you started without the program. on the other hand, deradicalization programs can pose a certain danger in certain terms it does. if you are taking people who are convicted terrorists -- certain circumstances. if you're taking people were convicted terrorists and putting them into programs together to basically be deradicalizatied, this goes to our policies. i'm not saying i disagree with them. this action goes to what marissa said. deradicalization strategies should be embraced as part of the effort against terrorism. but i think we need to understand the risks associated with them and in particular the way, these programs are studied and debated i think we have one blind spot. the blind spot is ideology. i will talk about that at some g

that are more informal or at a mosque level such as the program that was recently announced within toronto was serving a sun shade in between when someone has adopted a radical ideology and actually resort to terrorist violence. basically, trying to break the linkage between accepting radicalization and actually acting on it. but ultimately, if the program fails, that deradicalization programs -- then you're back where you started without the program. on the other hand, deradicalization programs can pose a danger in certain circumstances. and that is when you're taking people who are convicted terrorist and putting them into a program where they're being released and allegedly being too radicalized. i put that resort is the calculus because it goes to the rest of my speech, which is how do we think about deradicalization policies. now, i am not against them. i'm not going to say that we shouldn't use them. i agree actually with what teresa said, that deradicalization strategies should be embraced as part of a broader effort against terrorism. but i think we need to understand the risks tha

back then, i was so, so determined to protect this area, i flew up to toronto, met with roy sadler. he was president of sage creek. like a young lawyer armed with tons of questions, deposition. i kept asking him all these questions. what's your intention here? what's your intention there? this is such a special place. he looked at me and said why are you asking all these questions? i explained because this place is so special, i'm going to do everything within my power to protect it. the reason is because potential mining across the border was placed where all the water and pollution would flow south into the north fork of the flathead, and all the environmental -- all the environmental degradation would flow south but all the economic benefit would flow north. so for me i decided for myself i'm not going to let this happen. i'm going to protect this as much as i possibly can. for decades, the flathead, as i said, has been threatened by mining proposals in british columbia. not so much in montana but in british columbia. over the years, coal mining, coal bed methane extraction, gold
