Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre said nobody should take lessons on hate from a prime minister who wore blackface and racist costumes in the past.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Wednesday his party is vehemently opposed to the government's forthcoming online harms legislation — a bill designed to combat hate speech, terrorist content and some violent material on the internet.
"What does Justin Trudeau mean when he says the words 'hate speech'? He means the speech he hates," Poilievre said. "You can assume he will ban all of that." While he opposes the upcoming online harms legislation, Poilievre suggested he's open to another kind of crackdown on content. Trudeau hit back in a press conference of his own later Wednesday, saying Poilievre is hurling personal attacks to distract from his party's own policies.
A similar bill was introduced in 2019 but died on the order paper when the 2021 election was called. It hasn't been revived until now. He said there are "so many heartbreaking stories" of kids engaging in self-harm or suicide after facing abuse online."I'm focused on saving kids' lives, keeping them safe and protecting them," Singh said. "That's my sole concern. I don't see who could oppose such a thing."
