“Madam Speaker, I really appreciate the member for Vancouver East for her presentation today, being from British Columbia. She is always a thoughtful member. The Minister of Justice and the justice department have a mandatory requirement to table a charter statement on every piece of government legislation. We have seen it with other major bills, and obviously this touches on freedom of association and workers’ rights. Does the member believe that, before the special legislative committee is formed for Bill C-39, the Minister of Justice must ensure that there is tabled in the House a charter statement so we can see what the justice department believes in terms of the balance of Bill C-39, particularly when it comes to section 107?”
