Cathay Wagantall Conservative
“I voted for the report to support people who were hurting and to push for change. That recommendation still needs to happen.”
“Mr. Speaker, the tone in which the member presented his question is appreciated. I voted for the report. When we voted for that report, we were saying to all those suffering individuals that we were there for them, we heard them and we wanted to see change. I voted for that recommendation at that time. Over time, those same individuals who gave testimony have had time to process it. What is interesting is that what ended up being the recommendation in that report is also a recommendation that was put forward by that one individual. There are others who did excellent work too. It needs to be changed.”
