Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Acting Prime Minister.
Today the task force on disability issues released its report. Of the 52 recommendations, many were similar to those of the subcommittee on human rights and status of disabled persons which this government had previously rejected.
One of the key recommendations is that a Canadians with disabilities act be brought forward and enacted. It would ensure that persons with disabilities would have broad interpretation of citizenship in areas affected by the federal government.
What steps will the government take to respond to those persons with disabilities and provide an act like that and enact it before the next election?
