Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question.
It could be said the bill does not go far enough to make conversion therapy illegal and criminal. I am not a lawyer, but I know it is very difficult to tell consulting adults exactly what they can do with their time and their money. My hope through the bill is that we broaden the definition of what accepted love is in Canada and that we change attitudes. As I said in my speech, it is not people who need changing, it is that conversion therapy is based on two false premises: one that people can change and two, that people should change. Both are false and perhaps this is an iterative approach to making it completely illegal, but that is what committee is for and I look forward to discussing it further there.
