Madam Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36, I am pleased to present a petition on the subject human rights signed by a number of Canadians including from my own riding of Mississauga South.
The petitioners would like to draw to the attention of the House that human rights abuses continue to be rampant around the world, particularly in countries such as Indonesia. The petitioners also point out that Canada continues to be recognized internationally as a champion of human rights.
Therefore the petitioners call upon parliament to continue to condemn human rights abuses around the world and to seek to bring to justice those responsible for such abuses.
