Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government has undertaken to ban discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation. The Minister of Justice himself promised to change the Canadian Human Rights Act accordingly, no later than this fall. But we are now told that 60 Liberal members are against any legislative change to ensure that sexual orientation is considered as a prohibited ground of discrimination.
My question is for the Minister of Justice. In light of the opposition generated within government ranks, does the minister still plan to table by Christmas a bill to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act so that sexual orientation is recognized as a prohibited ground of discrimination?
