Mr. Speaker, through the committee process, a lot of good ideas came forward. In this bill, we have a clear definition of what hatred means. It was taken from Supreme Court precedents and those from other levels of court as well. The definition of “hatred” has been well established in this country, so it is very clear. Considering the fact that the Attorney General's consent would also be required in this bill, there would be an additional safeguard provided.
Work has been done on the bill, and I thank all parties for contributing, but it is time to get this passed so we can protect Canadians.
