[PASSED] Amendment to Article 1 of the Criminal Code (Extortion)
#3

I don't think "not carrying out a threat" counts as patronage, which generally conveys "offering support". Our patronage law would then cover a wide range of positive bribes, while this extortion law covers the negative bribes to an equally wide extent.

Alternately the word 'patronage' could be changed to something more neutral so as to cover both positive and negative attempts to threaten a person, and leave the blackmail law as it is.
