Thank you, Madam Chair.
The NDP-11 amendment proposes to add the word “promotes” so that it says, “promotes or advertises an offer to provide conversion therapy”. Mr. Garrison has already explained the terms and that promoting or advertising the provision of conversion therapy would be an offence. Accordingly, this amendment would ensure that the advertising offence protects against discriminatory public messaging as comprehensively as possible.
I therefore support this amendment.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
