Last week we heard from a witness, Mr. Tahir Gora. He's from the Canadian Thinkers' Forum and I'll quote what he said:
Critics criticized the name of the bill, calling it a pretty loaded one. However, our group believes in calling a spade a spade. Violence against women is an absolutely barbaric act. It must be addressed strongly. Forced marriages, polygamy, and honour killings happen every day around the globe under the guise of cultural practices. Should those cultural practices not be condemned? Calling a spade a spade should not be a political issue in a country like Canada where human rights guarantee equal rights to men and women.
Do you agree, and do you want to make a comment on it?
