“Canada’s House of Commons Moves to Criminalize Faith”

Bill Bunkley’s “This Is Something to Think About”

Air Date Tuesday, June 9, 2026

Canada’s House of Commons voted to “criminalize faith.” In passing Bill C-9, the Combating Hate Act,” the lower house just moved to remove existing protections for Christians that states “if, in good faith, the person expressed or attempted to establish by an argument an opinion on a religious subject or an opinion based on a belief in a religious text.”

This proposed bill removes religious liberty and religious freedom.

This proposal follows the anti-Christian movement in Europe.

If it becomes Canadian law, preaching the truth of God’s word out of the New and Old Testaments could result in a Pastor or Minister being arrested.

If a Canadian shares the Gospel on the street or the teachings on abortion, they too could go to jail.

The Canadian Senate must kill this bill.
