Proposed anti-hate legislation could help police in ‘cloudy areas’: analyst
A proposed anti-hate legislation could help police during protesting amid rise in hate crimes in Canada, a public safety analyst says.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to introduce a bill this week that will prohibit people from restricting access to places of worship, religious or cultural buildings, and schools.
The bill is also slated to include three new hate-related Criminal Code offences: willful intimidation, obstruction, and standalone hate occurring near places of worship.
