Toronto city council debates controversial ‘bubble zone’ bylaw prohibiting protests near schools, religious institutions

May 22, 2025
Toronto will soon be able to restrict protests near schools, daycares and places of worship after city council voted to pass a controversial “bubble zone” bylaw on Thursday. The bylaw, which takes effect July 2, will allow institutions to request 50-metre buffer zones prohibiting demonstrations around their properties. The measure was approved 16-9 after hours of debate.
