Yes, certainly.
You'll find that many of our amendments propose roughly the same word: “inequity”.
Amendment BQ‑1 proposes, as a first step, that clause 3 of the bill be amended by replacing line 12 on page 2 with the following:

In addition, the amendment proposes similar wording to replace line 3 on page 3 with the following:
ronmental inequities and that may include
We did not choose the word “inequity” lightly. We based ourselves first on definitions found in French dictionaries. For example, Le Petit Robert defines inequity as “extreme, flagrant injustice”. For its part, the TV5MONDE dictionary defines it as an “unbearable injustice”. It was after consulting such sources that we concluded that this was the strongest word we could use in French for our amendments.
Mr. Chair, shall I move amendments BQ‑1, BQ‑2 and BQ‑3 together?
