Ontario court finds stabbing at University of Waterloo wasn’t terrorism but was hate crime

An Ontario court has found that a stabbing at a University of Waterloo gender studies class was not terrorism but constituted a “particularly grave” hate crime.The judge sentencing Geovanny Villalba-Aleman says the evidence does not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that his hatred toward the LGBTQ+ community had crystallized into an ideology, which is one of the requirements for a finding of terrorism.
