[Petitions, June 15th, 2000]

Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition from approximately 500 people in St. John's East who are very concerned that last year the British Columbia Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal to reinstate subsection 4 of section 163.1 of the criminal code, making possession of child pornography illegal in British Columbia.

The petitioners are very concerned about that. They are requesting that parliament invoke section 33 of the charter of rights and freedoms, commonly known as the notwithstanding clause, to override the B.C. Court of Appeal decision and to reinstate subsection 4 of section 163.1 of the criminal code, making possession of child pornography in B.C. illegal, and by doing so, to reinforce and reaffirm our objection to the B.C. Court of Appeal decision.

[Petitions, June 14th, 2000]

Mr. Speaker, my second petition comes from a number of Newfoundlanders who make the case for the automatic harvesting of organs at death for transplant. The petitioners ask parliament to enact legislation to allow the automatic harvesting of organs at death for transplant, unless a specific request to the contrary has been made.

[Petitions, June 14th, 2000]

Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to present two petitions. The first petition comes from 2,500 Newfoundlanders from every part of Newfoundland and Labrador.

The petitioners are very disturbed and upset that the CBC nationally is cutting the supper hour news program Here and Now from one hour to half an hour. They ask parliament to intervene to protect the program, which is essential to the culture of our very large and sparsely populated province.

[Crimes Against Humanity Act, June 13th, 2000]
