It's an odd phenomena that everyone believes their views represent the political centre.

I think it's fear that drives your belief that this Motion would create a slippery slope of any kind.

The Motion is about supporting a community of individuals that are under siege. Muslims were attacked in their place of worship for no reason other than they were Muslims.

Look what is happening in the US. Look no further than the terrified refugees fleeing the US.

I have a hard time understanding why a symbolic show of support and reassurance that this type of Hate will not be tolerated in Canada is too scary for some people to accept.

Don't make it about word games and what-ifs.
