The week of Feb. 19 to 24 is Freedom to Read Week in Canada.
The week is an annual event promoting intellectual freedom, which is guaranteed under Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
While Canada provides for freedom of speech and allows the freedom to read, there are and have been some limitations on this freedom.
In addition, there have been efforts in Canada and beyond to have some works banned, censored or restricted.
How much do you know about your freedom to read? Put your knowledge to the test with these 10 questions.
Good luck.
