Mr. Speaker, my second petition containing several hundred names is concerned that the unborn have no legal rights in this country. The rights of the preborn child are not guaranteed in the charter of rights and freedoms.
Therefore these petitioners call on Parliament to enact legislation to protect the preborn by amending clause 28 of the charter of rights and freedoms to read “notwithstanding anything in this charter, the rights and freedoms set out in it are guaranteed equally to male and female persons from conception to natural death”. I personally support this as well.
