It was an important aspect of this bill. Many of my colleagues.... Mr. MacGregor, brought this up. I thought he was very eloquent about it. We wanted to ensure that this bill would not infringe on the rights of Canadians to peacefully protest on public property. I think that's an integral part of our society. It's something we want to ensure is protected. Absolutely, this does not prevent any group or individual from protesting on public property. You can do it on the highway, in the ditch, but there has to be a line that cannot be crossed, and that is that fence line, or the driveway or the barn door where there are some very real financial and mental health consequences is those are crossed.
This does not prevent any Canadian from peacefully protesting on public property outside a processing plant or a farm.
