Mr. Speaker, the third petition involves section 718.2 of Bill C-41.
The petitioners are extremely concerned about including the phrase sexual orientation for the first time in federal legislation. They believe this sets a dangerous precedent for society.
The final petition is on the subject of sexual orientation. The petitioners request that the Government of Canada not amend the Canadian Human Rights Act to include the phrase sexual orientation.
The petitioners fear that such an inclusion could lead to homosexuals receiving the same benefits and societal privileges as married people.
