On February 24, 2009, Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever was a panelist on the CTS (Crossroads Television) programme "On the Line" with host Christine Williams. In this segment, the panel discusses how a radical leftist managed to prevent a military re-enactment of the battle at the Plains of Abraham (in which England defeated France, in Quebec) by warning that the event's patrons could be assaulted (paint-balled, etc.).  Paul discusses former Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau's response during the FLQ crisis (murderous terrorists in Quebec in 1970), and the importance of taking a zero-tolerance approach to terrorist threats.  Along the way, Paul explains the unimportance of tradition, and what makes Canada Canada.
