The Liberals now hold a majority. New perspectives for C-9?

The Liberals have finally secured a majority in the House of Commons, thanks to their recent victories in three by-elections. It goes without saying that without the five defecting MPs who joined the Liberal ranks, Carney would still be leading a minority government.

Thanks to this sleight of hand (which casts doubt on the trust one can place in a candidate to whom one gives one’s vote), in which the magician-banker transformed Conservatives into Liberals, Carney now has free rein to pass whatever legislation he wants.

The Liberals no longer even need the Bloc to pass censorship laws like Bill C-9 on “hate.”

However, as you are no doubt aware, C-9 was passed in the House of Commons thanks to the Bloc’s support, on the condition that the bill include the removal of the “good faith religious defense” regarding “hate speech.”

Bill C-9 is awaiting its third reading in the Senate, at which point a ultimate amendment can be introduced—the very last chance to overturn or weaken this harmful legislation.

Indeed, if we fail to convince senators to reject all the problematic provisions the Liberals have included in Bill C-9, perhaps we could persuade them to reject the amendment asked by the Bloc, thereby sending the bill back to the House, where the Liberals, no longer needing their early Bloc accomplices, could pass C-9 while retaining the religious exemption.

Does this mean we would approve C-9 as modified? No, because it aims to penalize people based on their “emotions” — a subjective matter — and could be maliciously used against speeches that certain activists would label “hate speechs” for the sole purpose of silencing them.

But it is better to reduce an evil if we cannot eliminate it. That is why I urge you to contact Quebec’s senators to ask them, if they are not willing to remove the criminalization of a feeling, to reinstate protection for religious speech made in good faith.

Why Quebec senators in particular? Because the Liberals might use the fact that the repeal of the religious exemption originated with the Bloc Québécois — and thus with Quebec — as a pretext to keep the repeal in place. We can easily imagine them saying, “We want to take Quebec into account.” However, if Quebec senators — who also represent Quebec — were to speak out against the repeal of the religious defense, it would publicly demonstrate that Quebec is not unanimously behind the Bloc and its anti-religious agenda.

We therefore invite you to contact these senators, even if you are not from Quebec.

The Génération Vie event is just around the corner; on April 25, we will hold this forum aimed at bringing together pro-life advocates in Quebec. Among the speakers who will address the event are:

Jean-François Denis of ThéoVox.

Nathanael Séneron.

Richard Décarie of the Conservative Union.

Georges Buscemi of QLC.

It is important that the various advocates for life, family, and faith in Quebec join forces to advance these causes; we therefore invite you to participate in an event which will, we hope, lay the foundations for a broader movement.

Génération Vie conference

On Saturday, April 25th, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., we invite you to join us in Montreal at 740 Roy Street (Sherbrooke metro station) for Génération Vie (formerly FestiVie). We are expecting up to 500 people: several expositions, committed speakers and panelists such as Georges Buscemi, president of Quebec Life Coalition; Jean-François Denis of Théovox; Richard Décarie of the Union conservatrice; and many others; as well as hundreds of pro-life and pro-family Quebecers who hold dear faith, family, and life, from conception to natural death. It will be a true cultural and political crossroads to strengthen ties between pro-faith, pro-family, and pro-life actors from across the province, to exchange ideas, equip ourselves, and build together. Génération Vie is a must-attend event that is set to grow year after year — we invite you to join us on April 25th and contribute to this great gathering for the future of Quebec. The event is free, but donations will be welcome. Ample parking is available nearby. We strongly recommend bringing your own dinner, although there are restaurants nearby. Coffee and water are available for purchase on site.
The event will be held in French, with possible simultaneous translation (details to follow).
