Does this sound familiar?
It should...
Not only in Canada, but also in the former "Our Lady's Dowery," England, and elsewhere, quoting the biblical condemnation of the sin that cries to Heaven for vengeance could now be considered "hate speech"!
In reality, this is just another example of those who have true charity for their demented neighbor by preaching the Gospel, declared "hateful", etc.
The call to repent and change one's sick and deadly embrace of homosexuality (sodomy) is the one chance to save one's soul from damnation for all eternity...
So now, if you live in Canada there is a distinct chance you could be arrested for -- quoting the Bible -- and charged with "hate speech" when talking to someone emersed in that dreadful sin!
From lifesitenews.com, and written by Jonathon Van Maren Mon Feb 23, 2026 - 5:15 pm EST: Liberals bring back bill that could criminalize quoting Bible on homosexuality despite massive pushback - LifeSite
"(LifeSiteNews) — Bill C-9, the Carney government’s “hate speech” bill that would remove protections for religious speech, was back on the agenda for today’s Justice Committee meeting. Conservative MP Andrew Lawton, one of the bill’s most prominent critics, tabled a petition signed by thousands of Canadians opposing it earlier this month.
“I am proud to rise on behalf of Canadians, including in my own constituency, who are alarmed by what the government is doing through Bill C-9 – a bill that they claim will protect communities from hate, but in actuality exposes faith communities to harm from the government for daring to express their faith and quote religious texts,” Lawton told the House of Commons.
“The petitioners are very concerned by this infringement on religious liberty, which were aggravated of course by comments from the minister for Canadian Identity and Culture, arguing that there should be prosecution for citing certain religious texts,” Lawton continued. “So petitioners are calling on the government to withdraw Bill C-9 and focus on upholding freedom of expression and freedom of religion.”
Lawton was referring to comments made by Liberal minister Marc Miller, who last October said that “good faith” defenses of “hate speech” were indefensible under Canadian law during discussions at the Justice Committee. It was revealing that his go-to example was passages from Scripture.
“In Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Romans – there’s other passages –there’s clear hatred towards, for example, homosexuals,” Miller claimed. “I don’t understand how the concept of good faith can be invoked if someone were literally invoking a passage from, in this case, the Bible – there are other religious texts that say the same thing – and somehow say that this is good faith.”
“Clearly there are situations in these texts where these statements are hateful,” Miller added. “They should not be used to invoke, be a defense, and there should perhaps be discretion for prosecutors to press charges. I just want to understand what your notion of good faith is in this context where there are clearly passages in religious texts that are clearly hateful.”
Miller has denied that he wishes to prohibit certain religious texts, but the government’s track record makes it clear that the Liberals cannot be trusted on this file.
Lawton noted on Tuesday at the Justice Committee meeting that the Liberals had done nothing to address the concerns of Canadians, and that their proposed amendment – as per the government’s own lawyers – in fact “maintains the status quo”:
