In this clip with [Jordan Peterson conversing with Russel Brand, Peterson says, (3m:57s)](https://youtu.be/t0ym7XQZ-Hw?t=3m57s)

> The government, for the first time in the history of Canada and really in a move that was unprecedented in English Common Law, under English Common Law, actually mandated the content of voluntary speech.

Did Canada never mandate the content of "voluntary speech"? They never had something like the [Alien and Sedition Act](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_and_Sedition_Acts) or government censorship, and then never mandated the way you address the Queen, Mounties, or other government officials?
