I disagree. I don't think it infringes on my liberty as a Canadian citizen.

The Canadian Criminal Code differentiates between people inciting hatred and people expressing thoughts and feelings that some might consider hateful.

The law protects those from the zealots that might take their feelings and act on them. They are not regulating thought.
