Ontario cities consider banning protests near schools, places of worship | CTV News
Briefly

Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown is advocating for a new bylaw to prevent protests near sensitive locations, following violent demonstrations outside a local Hindu temple.
The City of Vaughan's recent bylaw allows for peaceful protests but targets 'nuisance demonstrations' within close proximity to crucial institutions like schools and hospitals.
Ottawa city council is studying a similar bylaw after growing concerns about the safety of residents during recent protests near vulnerable facilities and institutions.
Coun. Allan Hubley hopes the proposed bylaw would enhance community safety while still allowing citizens to exercise their right to peaceful protest.
