Canada introduces legislation to combat hate crimes, intimidation, and obstruction

There is a horrifying rise in hate crimes in our communities, and Canada will not tolerate anyone being made to feel afraid because of who they are, how they worship, or where they gather. Rising antisemitism, Islamophobia, homophobia and transphobia have left too many people feeling unsafe in their own communities.

I was wondering when you would get around to writing about this. Good to see you brought up Harper's attempt to push this through before Carney

I don't understand why Canadians are willfully ignoring the issue. No one is paying attention to the articles I've posted about this.

I'm worried we are distracted by our government and media's fixation with Trump, shutting down, tuning out to the threats within our own borders as our rights are being quietly removed. .

Honourable Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada

Canadians agree they have a right to strike. The Liberal party has invoked section 107 more often than their Conservative party opposition, which has resulted in a de facto violation of worker's charter rights.

The federal government’s repeated use of back-to-work powers undermines Canadian workers’ right to strike | The-14

Ottawa’s repeated use of back-to-work powers undermines strikes, weakens unions, and risks violating workers’ constitutional right to collective bargaining.

oh hayell yeah!

Addressing the abuse of the #Notwithstanding clause is a massive issue. It was added as a stopgap to get the Charter in there, but it is an attack on citizen's rights and should not exist.
