A Liberal MP is calling on the Conservative leader to give Bernier the boot.
"I'm a minister now right, and I still can't be believed right? What does it take for them?"
The Committee's report smothers real action on Islamophobia under generalized concerns about religious discrimination overall.
The federal government can be at ease knowing it will have broad support if it decides to implement the recommendations of the M-103 report.
Canada has sent a powerful message that reverberates across all factions: Canada stands with Muslims. This is what M-103 accomplishes. And this is the kind of religious tolerance and inclusiveness that make Canada a model for diversity around the world.
M-103 has proven divisive.
What needs to be made clear is that most Canadians challenging this motion are not challenging the issues facing the Muslim communities, or that racism does not exist; what they are uncomfortable with in this motion is the fact that it is favouring one community over others.
M-103 a hot topic in Conservative leadership race.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has instilled confidence that this unifying approach to fighting hate will prevail. Learning the lessons of the M-103 experience provides an opportunity for Canadians from all walks of life to come together, transcend our differences and achieve the objectives we collectively espouse.
Given what is happening right around us and in the world at large, means that it is high time to pause and talk about things bothering some Canadians, and doing it without a political agenda, without interference, and without shouting down the other side.
