Do you actually believe that? Do you actually believe that every time you see a church or a crucifix against your will, your rights have been violated? Or is this just bad faith / sloganeering?
I cannot tell if you are being ironic. Taking it at face value, what leads you to believe that in Canada, freedom of religion means that you have a right not to see anyone practicing religion?
I think anyone who grew up here would agree but it’s the reasonable limits clause.
What I find funny is when people act like these laws target Muslims when the majority of religious people in this country are Christians. The door knockers are the people being targeted. These laws protect Muslims from the Christians trying to force their religion on them because as a private matter your neighbours shouldn’t know what you practice.
Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Thine is the kingdom, the power, and glory, forever and ever, Amen.
Do you believe you now have some kind of legal standing to have me punished or silenced?
Are you aware of an instance where the reasonable limits clause of Section 1 has been used to prevent a Canadian from exercising their religious and personal expression rights in public? Is this your personal interpretation, or can you cite something with legal weight? Governments can place limits on rights (like freedom of expression or freedom of religion) if the restriction can be shown to be reasonable, necessary, and justified in a democratic society. As far as I know, it has never been legally established that it is reasonable, necessary, and justified that Canadian citizens cannot pray in public. I believe I can show that Canadian courts have consistently upheld the right to practice and express religion publicly, unless it infringes concrete rights of others (e.g. hate speech, discrimination in services).
You find it funny? I don’t see humour in it.
People act like these laws target Muslims because these laws frequently target Muslims, both in France, and here in Quebec.
why
turns out: hatred of muslims
In Canada freedom of religion includes freedom from it. By preaching or practicing in public you infringe on everyone else’s rights.

Yes, that’s the country we live in.
It’s why there’s calls for politicians to resign whenever they mention god. (Yes there are campaigns to change the anthems)

That makes zero sense logically.
Freedom of clothing includes freedom from clothing. By wearing clothing in public you infringe on everyone else’s rights.
Freedom of reading means freedom from reading. By reading in public you infringe on everyone else’s rights.
Freedom of speech means freedom from speech. By speaking in public you infringe on everyone else’s rights.
You see? It doesn’t make any sense and is actually the opposite of freedom.
Don’t try to argue that your prohibition as liberty. It’s nonsensical and the opposite of liberty.
Only one of those is a freedom
And yes we have freedom from hate speech and misinformation.
I think there are some very basic words for which you use a different definition than your audience expects.
