Thank you, Mr. Chair.
This amendment replaces line 23 on page 1 with the following:
structure, that is primarily used by an identifiable group as defined in subsection 318(4)
It then goes on to make further amendments.
I believe this accurately characterizes what I believe is the proper way to address the buildings, which is that they be for the primary use. It's the wording that's currently in the act now with regard to religious buildingsāthat the buildings be primarily used for that purpose. I believe this is a proper way to ensure that the buildings we're talking about for this higher threshold be identified and readily identifiable by the public as primarily used by the class, and for the reasons that make this a more serious situation with regard to the mischief.
I take the points made earlier by the members opposite, but reiterate the fact that this doesn't mean those types of activities would not warrant criminal sanction or would not be considered as being motivated by hate. That's not the issue here. The issue here is regarding the notoriety of the building to ensure that we are not making it overly broad. For that reason, I'm putting forward LIB-2.
