Madam Speaker, I listened with interest to the hon. member for Wanuskewin.
Does he not think that Bill C-19 deals with some very important issues of implementing a process by which people cannot commit crimes against humanity? Genocide and war crimes are defined in the bill. Is he suggesting to the House that this bill is not trying to deal with an extremely important question in the world today?
I do not know if the member was here when President Václav Havel from the Czech Republic was here. He talked about the fact that in the new century the nation-state concept was giving ground to wider responsibilities. From everything I have read and know of him, I suggest that Václav Havel would be supportive of this.
What is in the bill that any citizen of goodwill in Canada or another country would not support? With Kosovo, Rwanda and with all of the catastrophes we have seen around the world, this bill is something all of us should support, not just members on this side of the House.
