Mr. Speaker, I will try to be brief.
I have petitions on a number of different subjects, so I will just state what they are by topic. Some of these petitions were presented to me by my constituents and others by constituents of the Minister of State for Democratic Reform, who cannot introduce them, as he is a minister. Therefore, he has asked me to introduce those on his behalf.
The first petition is calling for fair representation in the House of Commons. The petitioners would favour a bill on a proportional system of representation being passed.
