Mr. Speaker, Canada is a country that values freedom from oppression, not freedom to oppress others. The rights of women and girls, including the right to choose, is put in danger by the far right, including some members of the Conservative opposition. A Liberal government will always support and protect women's and girls' rights here at home and around the world.
Along with Germany, Australia and the Netherlands, we will hold the Taliban regime accountable for its violations of women's and girl's rights in Afghanistan. We will always be there for women at home and around the world.
