Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Human Resources committee Yes, I do. I do believe it is a slam against not only victims but other individuals who have all kinds of problems. I could go into my own set of circumstances when my husband was ill, but I'm not going to do that here today. We have to make a choice. As I said, there are limit

Human Resources committee I'm not too sure how to project the future, but I don't think the Canadian public will take it lightly. I don't see how they can. It just doesn't make sense. Most people don't know about it anyway. You can be rest assured, though, that if it isn't passed, we have ways and means

Human Resources committee I was just going to say that I'm retired. I'm not on a salary from Victims of Violence. I'm on CPP and old age security, OAS, and a small pension from the provincial government. Trust me, I don't break the law by speeding because I don't have the funds to actually pay a $100 tick

Human Resources committee That's fair. I'm not saying that we should bring victims into the 104 weeks. All I'm saying is that criminals are already there—take it away. That's what I'm saying: repeal it.

Human Resources committee Yes. It's common sense. However, I am definitely a supporter of putting money into rehabilitating the person so they can become a law-abiding citizen.

Citizenship and Immigration committee You can tell my age; I was wondering where my glasses were and they're on my head. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen of the standing committee.
