It all started with this division, inequality and exclusion. It divided Canadians. It seems like it was done intentionally. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9207220\" data-originallang=\"en\">Over the last 10-plus years, does the member think that perhaps the government was intentionally trying to divide Canadians, foment hatred, so it could bring in Bill <a data-HoCid=\"13590613\" href=\"/bills/45-1/C-9/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural places)\">C-9</a> and use it to muzzle us? </p>",
