Mr. Speaker, I understand that my colleague is not reading that right. That is not at all the case.
I will take another approach. Hate speech and the propagation of hatred are indeed prohibited under section 319, but there is a religious exemption. If the religious exemption is not needed, then let us simply remove it. If it has not been used as a defence or has not been successfully used as a defence, then let us simply agree to remove it.
If my Conservative colleagues think that the safeguards that are already in place are strong enough, then why are they opposed to removing these two provisions of section 319 that allow for the propagation of hatred and violence under the guise of religion?
Let us simply remove those provisions if they serve no purpose.
