Canada's Insane New Hate Speech Law

About this sermon

“Good laws are designed to judge visible actions, not internal emotional states.” Sponsor: https://exodus90.com/brian Support the channel by visiting: https://brianholdsworth.ca/help Clear laws protect ordinary people.

In this video, I explain why legal certainty is essential to justice, how hate-speech laws undermine the rule of law, and why criminalizing intent and offense opens the door to arbitrary enforcement and abuse of power — using real-world examples from the UK, Canada, and beyond.
