Justice committee Okay. Thank you. I'm not sure I got an answer.

Justice committee I can confirm that you were at that rally in which pro-Hamas chants occurred, where there were such anti-Semitic slogans as "from the river to sea, Palestine will be free". I'm looking at an image in which there's a sign saying "stop the Palestinian holocaust now. Fascist Israeli

Justice committee Right. I thank you for that, and I take your point and appreciate that you might not want to give an opinion on Mr. Warman. I will read into the record that the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal did characterize his actions as “disappointing and disturbing”. Mr. Arnot, you just s

Justice committee Mr. Arnot.

Michael CooperConservative
Justice committee Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the witnesses. I'll begin with Mr. Arnot. Mr. Arnot, you made reference to the Ahenakew case. That particular case was based on a complex set of facts, including whether the conversation was a private one, which it was ultimately determin

Justice committee Maybe you said subsection 319(1), but perhaps you meant subsection 320.1.
May 28th, 2019Committee meeting
Michael CooperConservative
Justice committee I raise that because you did cite section 13, but section 320.1 is an interesting section of the Criminal Code, one that, for whatever reason, has been completely underutilized. It provides a judge with the authority, on reasonable grounds, to order the removal of something on a

Justice committee Thank you, Mr. Chair. While I certainly find the comments made by Mr. Suri to be deeply offensive and objectionable and vehemently disagree with them, I will withdraw saying that he should be ashamed. That was not unparliamentary, but I understand it made some members of the co

Michael CooperConservative
Justice committee Thank you, Mr. Chair. First of all, Mr. Suri, I take great umbrage with your defamatory comments to try to link conservatism with violent and extremist attacks. They have no foundation. They're defamatory and they diminish your credibility as a witness. Let me, Mr. Chair, read
