My previous comment pertained to hate speech laws here in the United States. As far as Canada is concerned, I think this bill makes sense in the framework of its existing hate speech laws.
I just think we should be wary here in the United States of opening up to further interpretation what is protected speech and what is not.
Also, I'm not sure where that comment about the 9th Circuit Court is coming from, since the court has taken some courageous stands on behalf of free speech in the past.
