Canada's Parliament Officially Passes 'Bible Ban' Bill C-9

Anthony Murdoch : Jun 18, 2026  LifeSiteNews.com

"Today is a dark day in Canadian history. The House has passed Bill C-9—an assault on religious freedom that removes longstanding protections for Canadians expressing sincerely held beliefs. Conservatives fought this bill every step of the way—and we will keep fighting until religious freedom is restored." -Conservative MP, Brad Redekopp

On Wednesday, June 17, a majority of MPs voted down an attempt by Conservative MP Andrew Lawton to stop Bill C-9 "once and for all."

"The Liberals and Bloc Québécois voted down my motion to withdraw the divisive and toxic Bill C-9 to stand up for freedom of expression and freedom of religion," wrote Lawton in an X post.

Lawton thanked Green and NDP MPs for voting in opposition to Bill C-9, noting that "opposition to this bill has come from the political left and right, from civil liberties groups and a range of faith organizations."

"With the adoption of the Senate's amendment criminalizing the noose as a hate symbol, Bill C-9 will soon receive royal assent and become law."

As reported by LifeSiteNews, Canadian senators voted recently to approve the Liberals' Bill C-9 or "An Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime, and access to religious or cultural places)."

However, because the last-minute amendment adding the noose was made, the bill had to go back to the House of Commons before it was sent to the Governor General for Royal Assent to become law.

As reported by LifeSiteNews, Canadian senators last week voted down a recent proposed amendment to Bill C-9 that would have criminalized "residential school denialism."
