Issue The issue in the R.V. Keegstra was whether section 319 of the criminal code violated section 2b of the charter. Crown’s Arguments The Crowns Arguments were from section 319 of the Criminal Code were it says that everyone who by communication statements in any public place incites hatred against and identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace. The Crown used this argument to say that he had gone over board with his right of freedom of speech by saying such hateful things against the Jews.
