The anti-bullying law has been debated heavily. Some say it infringes on freedom of religion because it requires schools to allow gay-straight alliance groups, and others say the wording in the bill is too broad.
The Opposition Conservatives proposed major changes to the bill and more than 300 Manitobans, some opposed and some in favour, spoke at public hearings on the bill.
