Faith leaders push to keep law protecting religious groups

Toronto's Cardinal Thomas Collins anoints the altar of St. Michael's Cathedral during a rededication ceremony Sept. 29, 2016. Canada's proposed Bill C-51 would remove a section of the Criminal Code that currently makes it an indictable offense to threaten or obstruct clergymen or ministers from celebrating services or going about their work.
Canada’s bishops have joined 65 other faith leaders to urge the federal government to rethink legislation that would eliminate laws that make it an offence to disrupt a religious service.
