When you have the Canadian Civil Liberties Association AND the Canada Constitution Foundation both expressing major concerns over a bill explicitly intended to increase „hate crime“ related convictions – you have to wonder if you’re really on the right side of history.
Apparently the LPC believes that symbols like the Swastikas are so inherently powerful and persuasive that we must ban them – for even the site of a symbol they don’t like may spontaneously result in the mass recruitment into a Nazi party or something.

>One area Enoch says deserves closer attention is how Bill C‑9 might affect strike and picket activity. “One of the clauses restricts obstruction of certain locations,” he said. “That could potentially prevent workers from exercising their legitimate right to strike or picket.”
Not surprising coming from the party that shut down Air Canada strike in 12 hours. This is what Liberal voters were cheering for when they got their majority?

The senate is in the liberal party’s pocket. Of course they will not consider “review”.
