Mr. Speaker, might I then finish my discourse today by saying that discrimination in Canada in any way shape or form is wrong. There should be no discrimination in this House of Commons toward those who are of a different lifestyle or different behaviour. To hide behind the term homophobic, to allow a promotion that is unhealthy is far more wrong. In this House of Commons I believe in telling the truth. I believe in saying openly that the opening of this issue with the phrase in the bill is going to take us down a road we should not travel upon.
In the House of Commons on May 7th, 1996. See this statement in context.
