Bill C-9, including the repeal of that odious religious exception, has finally been adopted by the House of Commons. It is now up to the Senate.
Catholics are not amused. They recommend "extra prayer and fasting" to defeat the bill.

Le Projet de loi C-9 vient d'être adopté par la Chambre des communes.
Donc c'est maintenant au Sénat de décider si cette horrible exception religieuse va disparaître.

Frédéric Bérard devant la Cour suprême aujourd'hui :
« Il n'y a pas de lien entre les signes religieux et le prosélytisme, c'est clair. »

ISLAMOPHOBIA: A Political Shield to Silence Legitimate Criticism of Islamic Doctrine
Excellent explanation of this highly dubious term, used mainly as a defamatory accusation.
The term “helps protect Political Islam and its totalitarian, theocratic aims…”

To all the people who keep saying “Islam gave women their rights in the 7th century”... is that why HISlam gives men the rights and a 3-step plan to discipline nushuz (disobedient) women? 🤬

R-U : Les procureurs rabroués, l'acquittement de celui qui a brûlé un coran est confirmé.
« Hamit n'aurait jamais dû être poursuivi. Le blasphème n'est plus un délit dans ce pays depuis 18 ans et, pour cette raison, ces poursuites étaient vouées à l'échec. »

But they agree on one thing: the Iranian regime must not be allowed to obtain or develop nuclear weapons.
I agree too.

The alliance between the left and Islamism is extremely dangerous, but Marx & Engels announced it in 1848 in their Manifesto!
“Communists everywhere support every revolutionary movement against the existing social and political order of things.”
EVERY such movement? Even if WORSE than status quo?

In the News: Abolition of Office “Combatting Islamophobia”
Good riddance to Ms. Elghawaby.
But it remains to be seen whether the so-called “advisory committee” which replaces her will constitute a real improvement.

In the News: Canada Promotes Religious Slaughter Without Stunning
It is unacceptable for the State to promote religious norms. This is incompatible with secularism.
Furthermore, slaughter without stunning is cruel and unhygienic.

In the News: Mayor of New York uses Islam to Support his Sanctuary City Policy
