Are there any remaining western countries with strong free speech protections?

UK and Germany weren't ever good in this department but now worst than ever.

US supposedly good but I wouldn't risk it in practice.

Australia I hear is also quite bad.

Canada and NZ I don't know.

I expect Denmark and Sweden to have somewhat weak free speech laws too.

Norway and Finland I expect to be good.

France I expect to be just slightly better than Germany.

Netherlands and Switzerland, I have no idea.

Czech Republic I think has strong protections.

Italy and Spain and Ireland, I heard mixed reports about.

Poland, Greece, Slovenia, Portugal and other unnamed countries I don't know at all.
