Canada paused its hate crimes bill to prioritize bail reform, aiming to reduce pretrial detention.
In early 2026, Canadian Liberal lawmakers paused progress on a hate crimes bill to focus on advancing a comprehensive bail reform initiative, citing urgent concerns over pretrial detention and over-incarceration, particularly for non-violent offenders.
While the hate crimes legislation remains under review, officials emphasize both bills are still active, with bail reform expected to be reintroduced soon.
The shift has drawn praise from some advocacy groups for prioritizing systemic justice improvements, while others worry delaying hate crimes legislation may hinder efforts to address rising bias-motivated violence.
