And what did the motion entail

It's just symbolic. Taking a stand against discrimination, assault and hate crime

@UnparalleledMonster: No problem with taking a stand against hate crimes but rather odd to choose a type that constitutes 4/10 of one percent to make a point. Jews are the most common hate crime victim. And most of the so called islamophobic hate crimes turn out to be a hoax.

@katielass:
Yeah yeah. Same logic applies when whiners shout down any feminist issue in north america because women elsewhere have it so much worse.
Bit of a facile argument, yeah?
Anyway, this motion comes on the heals of the hoax where 6 muslims were shot to death and 8 others wounded while they worshiped in their quebec city mosque.
So no, i DON'T think it's "rather odd" for a canadian mp to be addressing this specific issue right now and nor should you.
