Madam Speaker, I cannot help but ask the member for Dartmouth--Cole Harbour how he can stand in the House and indicate that he is prepared to vote for something to which he says he is fundamentally opposed.
Where does the member draw the line? When is something so repugnant that he and others in his caucus will stand up and express their true feelings?
He will know, as others in the House know, the old expression, “They came for the women, and I was not there. They came for the people with disabilities, and I was not there. They came for the unions, and I was not there. They came for the Jews, and I was not there”.
Where and when does the member draw a line? When will he stand up for something that is as fundamental as pay equity, a human right in this country?
