Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition from my constituents in Kitchener Centre who point out that Canada is the only nation in the western world, and in the company of China and North Korea, without any laws protecting the rights of children before birth. They said that Canada's Supreme Court has said that it is Parliament's responsibility to deal with this issue.
The petitioners call upon the House of Commons to enact legislation to restrict abortion to the greatest extent possible.
I would be happy if we could just have an informed discussion about the rights of children before birth.
