How is criminalizing "obstruction and intimidation aimed at protecting places of worship and institutions -- including schools, daycares and seniors’ residences" controversial?
How are obstruction and intimidation defined in the law? What is haye being fefined as?
If you haven't noticed, people holding signs that say "end the genocide" or "free Gaza" are being targeted as hate speech mongers because pro-Israeli governments are equating Zionism and Semitism, an old tactic actually used by hate groups targeting Jews.
From the bill itself:
Intimidation — building used for religious worship, etc. Start of inserted block 423.3 (1) Every person commits an offence who engages in any conduct with the intent to provoke a state of fear in a person in order to impede their access to
Also :
Obstruction or interference with access Start of inserted block (2) Every person commits an offence who, without lawful authority, intentionally obstructs or interferes with another person’s lawful access to a building or structure, or part of a building or structure, referred to in paragraph (1)(a) or to a cemetery.
Also from the website for the bill: "The Bill would not enact “bubble zones” that create protest-free areas around designated buildings. Bubble zone laws are enacted by provinces and municipalities. For example, some provinces have established access zones around abortion clinics, and some municipalities have enacted bubble zone by-laws to provide for safe access to facilities like schools, daycares, and places of worship."
