First line:
Yes, these are charged incidents, but IIUC, the first was essentially a property crime that was quickly remedied.
The other looks like a dumbass picked an argument with a woman in a hijab—a woman who is probably a bit concerned about assault from men and/or Mulslimphobes, and/or racists.
Maybe charge him with harassment.
If you want to ban the swastika and attacking Islam, then that's something else.
No hat is sacred, but you don't touch another's headwear (unless you get consent), because it's their property, and if they're wearing it at the time, it can be assault.
But commenting on headwear, while possibly ill-mannered, isn't a crime, IMO.
My part of Canada isn't frozen, nor has it been frozen for over 150 days.
I thought he was alone.
That's kinda the point, he faces no consequences. More of his islamophobic cousins and friends get emboldened.
Swastika isn't a hateful symbol either IMHO. Indigenous people of North America, European pagans and South Asians were drawing it long before nazis took it. They even called it a "cross" not Swastika.
Anyway, you're of the opinion that harassing a random muslim family is ill mannered at best. I think that's bullshit double standards.
Arresting people for drawing an ancient symbol while ignoring proud racists harassing a muslim family for existing. That's literally how you build fkd up shithole societies.
He faced some consequences: the 2 women, police check, and exposure he probably didn't want.
(His car apparently runs on water.)

Not necessarily. Is he harassing them? Is he threatening them? Call the police.
Most people carry phones with cameras, as these people apparently did. Maybe get his license number.
agreed.
