Mr. Speaker, as I said in my remarks, the Minister of Justice is open to considering good faith amendments to this bill.
The government does not hold a monopoly on great legislation. Let us move that legislation forward. Let us have those debates in good faith. Let us talk critically about the state of the law and what it actually is, not what the Conservatives want people online to believe it is. Let us look at what the Supreme Court has said about hate and how the law is intended to protect freedoms in our democracy.
When we recognize the scourge of hate, we allow people to live freer lives because they are free of hate, fear and intimidation. That is the purpose of the hate laws that we have had in this country for decades.
