Mr. Speaker, on the campaign trail, the Conservatives promised not to reopen the abortion debate but guess what? We are debating abortion.
The NDP is proud to be the only federal party with a clear position on abortion. Women have the right to choose.
Should women's existing rights be up for debate in Parliament? Can Parliament take away any of those rights? The NDP says no.
Can the ministers who plan to vote in favour of Motion M-312 explain to us why they think it is a good idea to take away Canadian women's basic rights?
