Mr. Speaker, I rise today to present a number of petitions containing just under 2,000 signatures of constituents from Crowfoot. These are people from all across the large riding of Crowfoot: Three Hills, Drumheller, Strathmore, Rockyford, Big Valley. The petitioners ask Parliament to pass legislation to recognize the institution of marriage in federal law as being the union of one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others.
In the House of Commons on April 18th, 2005. See this statement in context.
