Mr. Speaker, the second petition is signed by over 400 people. They remind Parliament that discrimination which occurs daily against lesbian, gay and bisexual Canadians is unacceptable in a country known for its commitment to human rights and equality. They call upon Parliament to act quickly to amend the human rights act to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and to recognize the equality of same sex relationships.
