It's you that's missing the point. The prevalence of hate crimes in Canada is dropping overall... except against one group of people: Muslims. Hate crimes against Muslims have risen two-fold in the last two years. This has recently culminated in the horrific murder of six Muslims in their house of worship by a hate-filled extremist.

Yet in the face of that disturbing evidence, you insist that only a generic description of the situation can be used. And that even though the motion explicitly speaks to all forms of hate and fear, as well as Islamophobia, that's not "balanced" enough for you.

I suppose that on 9/11 when the Canadian government condemned the attack, you were against that motion because it didn't mention America's home-grown terrorists. Gotta have that balance, hmm?
