Mr. Speaker, in accordance with Standing Order 36 I would like to present a petition signed by residents of the district of High Prairie in my riding of Athabasca.
The petition requests a referendum of the people binding upon Parliament to accept or reject two official languages, English and French, for the government and the people of Canada, the acceptance or rejection of the proposed amendments to be determined by a majority vote of the total votes cast in the whole of Canada, together with a majority vote in the majority of the provinces and with the territories being given the status of one province.
I present the petition and support the petitioners.
