Mr. Sandler, it's okay for us to politely disagree. All I ask is for equal application of the rule of law, something that regretfully we're not seeing in this context. We're hearing deafening silence from my friends the Liberals across the aisle on this. This bill does not do anything to address any of that, because all of that is already contrary to the Criminal Code.
I heard you say in your opening remarks that you're disappointed that wilful promotion of terrorism did not make it into this bill. I'd take the opportunity to remind you that the former Conservative government passed promotion of terrorism into the Criminal Code as a criminal offence, and that in 2017 the Liberal government under Justin Trudeau diluted that law and in fact repealed some portions of that law, leading it to remain as only a counselling terrorism offence.
Please talk to us a little bit about wilful promotion of terrorism. What would you like to see added? Do you believe it will survive constitutional scrutiny if framed correctly?
