Evidence labels:

## Confirmed
- The TikTok exists and was captured.
- The speaker is identified in the TikTok caption as John Carpay of the Justice Centre context.
- The claim is framed as “reports” received by the Justice Centre, not as a court finding or official admission.
- Bill C-9 exists. Parliament’s LEGISinfo page identifies it as the Combatting Hate Act, a House Government Bill amending the Criminal Code regarding hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural places.
- LEGISinfo indicates Bill C-9 received royal assent on June 18, 2026 and became Statutes of Canada 2026, c. 15.
- The bill summary states that it repeals the requirement for Attorney General consent for hate-propaganda prosecutions, creates a hate-symbol/public-place offence, creates a hate-crime offence, and creates offences related to intimidation/obstruction of access to religious or cultural places.

## Not verified in this pass
- The specific reports of Canadians being visited at home by government officials over old social-media posts.
- Which agency, province, municipality or official allegedly made any visits.
- Whether any contact was law enforcement, bylaw, human-rights, school/employer, public-health, election, or another type of official contact.
- Whether Bill C-9 itself caused any such visit.
- Whether any prosecution, charge, warning letter, complaint file or investigation record exists.

## Documents needed
- Names of agencies/officers involved, dates, notices, cards, letters or file numbers.
- Police/bylaw/human-rights/election records, if applicable.
- ATIP/FOI requests for complaint intake, investigation files or referral logs.
- The full UnfilteredCdn interview when released.
- Any Justice Centre client file, affidavit, demand letter or court filing if public.
