The Supreme Court of Canada considered the meaning of the offence of advocating genocide in a deportation case , '' Mugesera v. Canada ( Minister of Citizenship and Immigration ) '' . The individual was an immigrant from Rwanda . The Court found that he was a member of a hard-line Hutu party , and that he had made a speech during the Rwandan genocide , calling for his listeners to exterminate members of the Tutsi ethnic group . The Court found that would constitute the offence of advocating genocide under s. 318 , if it had occurred in Canada , and therefore met the legal standard for deporting the individual
