Will "Tolerance" Someday Trump the Constitution?

Yesterday the Canadian Senate passed Bill C-250, a bill that would criminalize people who express an opinion contrary to homosexual behavior, including views based on religion, conscience, morality, and even medical or humanitarian concerns! I must pause and wonder if Canada is simply one step "ahead" of the United States in its rush to promote tolerance for everyone except people of faith. If this is true, then how soon will it be before "tolerance" trumps the First Amendment? How much longer before we won’t be able to quote certain bible verses in public - or maybe even in private?
