I'm surprised how many people don't know the difference between a motion and a bill.

This motion is coming off the heals of the Quebec City shooting, so it's not difficult to understand why some Muslims want the Canadian government to make a symbolic stand against promoting hate toward their community. That hate spills over to violence very quickly.

No laws are set to be changed. It will just put Islamophobia into the vernacular of laws that already exist and hopefully define it in a meaningful way.
