    The Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015, is an act of Canadian Parliament that is colloquially referred to as ‘Bill C-51’ or ‘the Bill’, and any mentions of such will, unless explicitly stated, refer to the Act as it was passed and not to the proposed Bill.

Unfortunately, we need to do this by staying within the premises of the law. The parody in the cartoon imitates the energizer bunny that it keeps going and going and the battery rolling behind it is the next terrorist that will fuel more attacks.…

For example if the government of Syria tried to overthrow our President there would be instant tension and a sense of disrespect which is why it is important that the United States is careful about how they handle this situation.…
