Mr. Speaker, I would have a second petition to table. It concerns violence and abuse in our society.
The petitioners point out that violence in our society is a concern throughout the land. They want violence in the media, whether it be on radio or television, looked at very carefully. The petitioners ask specifically that government ensure that the
CRTC do whatever it can in this matter. They acknowledge there have been some initiatives undertaken and some successes. They point out that violence is not necessary to inform or entertain. They point out that they feel it goes counter to their efforts to raise their families.
