This is for my unilingual francophone colleagues. I simply want to note that it is important for the NDP that written documents be provided in both languages. I know these are special circumstances and that everyone is demonstrating their good will by making compromises on bilingualism, but that is precisely why we are going to vote on my colleague Alexandrine Latendresse's bill, to raise the level of bilingualism in Canada and in Parliament.

That the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, pursuant to Standing Order 97.1, recommends that the House of Commons do not proceed further with Bill C-273, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cyberbullying), because: Bill C-273 raises criminal policy and drafting concerns; Parliamentary review of the bullying issue is still on-going and legislation to address this matter is pre-mature, and; The overwhelming majority of witnesses appearing before the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights have raised concerns with this legislation;
