“Survivors showed great courage by speaking out about forced sterilization. Their bravery brought this bill forward, and I expect it to pass soon. I want the member to share his thoughts on recognizing these survivors.”
“Mr. Speaker, I appreciate many of the words the member has put on the record with respect to such an important issue. I would like to highlight in my question and comment the bravery and the courage this would have taken for survivors, individuals who have gone through this experience and who have continued to raise the profile of the issue to such a degree that we actually have legislation before us now that I anticipate will pass, at the very latest, after the second hour of debate. Could the member provide his thoughts in terms of recognizing those outstanding individual Canadians?”
