Mr. Chair, the Bloc Québécois will vote against the amendment put forward by the government. We feel that the English term “means” is too restrictive, when the bill talks about being inclusive. It provides a lot more flexibility and is much more suited to new technologies when passing legislation. Of course, an act can be amended and improved. It has to be an evolving mechanism. I think we should keep the idea of inclusiveness, instead of being more specific and restrictive by using the term “means”. So we will vote against the government's amendment.
On October 26th, 2010. See this statement in context.
