General Information
What is a Hate Crime?
A hate crime is a criminal offence committed against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by the offender’s (real or perceived) bias, prejudice or hate against an identifiable group. An identifiable group may be distinguished by race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age, language, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression, or on any other similar factor.
What is a Hate Incident?
A hate incident is a non-criminal action or behaviour that is motivated by hate against an identifiable group. Examples of hate incidents include using racial slurs or insulting a person because of their ethnic or religious dress or how they identify. (For example, a neighbour dispute or a dispute in a parking lot, which escalates to verbal abuse, derogatory or racial slurs.)
