‘Stand your Ground’ bill protects Canadians who use force to protect homes against intruders

OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) — The Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) introduced a “Stand Your Ground” private members’ bill that would protect Canadians from being prosecuted if they use lethal force to defend their home against invaders. CPC MP Sandra Cobena late last week introduced Bill C-270, or the Stand on Guard Act, which modifies Section 34 of the Criminal Code dealing with personal defense. The bill would allow homeowners to use force, including lethal force, if necessary, against intruders.
