The House dealt with a procedural step on Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act, which would change the Criminal Code’s rules on hate propaganda and hate crimes, including removing the requirement for the Attorney General’s consent to prosecute hate propaganda offences, and add offences related to symbols, hate-motivated crimes, and blocking access to religious or cultural places. The parties could not agree on how long to debate the Senate’s amendment to the bill, so a minister announced an intention to move a time-limit motion at the next sitting under Standing Order 78.Written by AI from the debate.

“The parties could not agree on how long to debate the changes to the hate crimes bill. A minister will move to limit debate time at the next meeting.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, an agreement could not be reached under the provisions of Standing Order 78(1) or 78(2) with respect to the consideration of the Senate amendment to Bill C-9, an act to amend the Criminal Code regarding hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural places. Under the provisions of Standing Order 78(3), I give notice that a minister of the Crown will propose at the next sitting a motion to allot a specific number of days or hours for the consideration and disposal of proceedings at the said stage.
