Quote:
The Criminal Code currently includes an exemption for hate speech, "if, in good faith, the person expressed or attempted to establish by an argument an opinion on a religious subject or an opinion based on a belief in a religious text."
The Bloc is expected to introduce the amendment to remove that section of the code as part of Bill C-9 — dubbed the Combatting Hate Act

Sounds good to me. Why should someone get an exemption to be a bigot based on interpretation of some trash some rando dudes wrote 2000 years ago? Is that what we value protecting as a society? The right to be a ####o for those indoctrinated hard enough, but also have an ####### enough heart to behave in a way they may end up running against this law? But please, present an argument why I am wrong.
