Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to present two petitions dealing with the same subject.
The first petition has been signed by 615 petitioners who petition parliament to support the motion of the representative from Yorkton—Melville that in the opinion of the House the government should bring in legislation in accordance with provisions of the Referendum Act, 1992, which would require a binding national referendum to be held at the time of the next election to ask voters whether or not they are in favour of government funding of medically unnecessary abortions.
The second petition is on exactly the same subject, the same motion. It is signed by 125 petitioners who present it to parliament for its consideration.
