Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to rise today to table a petition from my constituents in Winnipeg Centre, who are expressing their concern with the government's ongoing violation of international law by its refusal to close the loopholes in Canada for weapons exports that enable Canadian-made arms to be used for war crimes and genocide. My constituents call on the government to close this loophole by voting in favour of Bill C-233, the no more loopholes act, which MPs will vote on this week.
I will always support my constituents in upholding international law, which is why I encourage all members in the House to say yes to Bill C-233. I join my constituents in demanding that the Liberal government do the same.
