Todd Doherty Conservative
“I am thanking the members who spoke on this bill to protect health care workers and first responders. One of our members served as a firefighter for 22 years and knows their challenges first-hand. I want the other members to be quiet and listen.”
“Mr. Speaker, I want to first thank our colleagues from all sides who spoke to Bill S-233. I specifically want to thank two members. I thank the member for Barrie South—Innisfil for his service. What many people may not know is that he served as a firefighter for, I believe, 22 years. He served our communities. He knows first-hand the challenges firefighters face. I also want to thank our colleague for Prince George—Peace River—Northern Rockies— Some hon. members: Oh, oh! Todd Doherty: Mr. Speaker, perhaps I should wait until government members can settle down and listen.”
