Mr. Speaker, the federal government did not initiate these proceedings, but we are going to participate in the case before the Supreme Court of Canada. It is very important that the federal government defend the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and defend human rights.
After several years, the case has made its way to the Supreme Court of Canada. It is unimaginable to think that the federal government would not weigh in on the issue. We will be participating in the court proceedings. We will defend the charter now and into the future.
