Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is condemning “anti-Christian hate” following two church burnings in Canada and the United States in the past week, and called for more to be done to stop the arsons.
One hundred churches have been burned, Poilievre said, in response to a reporter’s question on recent church burnings during an unrelated Sept. 29 press conferenceChristians may be the number one group that are victims of hate-based violence. But, of course, it’s not politically correct to say that.
