Can this decal get me into actual legal trouble?
In the last 15 years I've been left angry notes, my tires deflated, and I've been keyed. Can someone accuse this as hate speech under the new bill?
I'm sure this is protected under the charter but I just want to say I seriously HATE this hate speech bill. What a load of garbage.

If only, basically.
As far as I can the places of worship thing is the only expansion of what can be prosecuted. The rest is just about making it easier to prosecute. You can still say all gays belong in prison and be fine.
The bill, as it is written determines if a law was broken by how the aggrieved party feels. Which is absolutely ridiculous.
Doesn't the describe harassment, psychological abuse and maybe sexual harassment laws, too? Like, I can see why you'd take issue with it, but it's not exactly unprecedented.
