Elizabeth May, Saanich—Gulf Islands

Green
“I am presenting a petition with over 1,000 signatures. It asks Canada to lead the way on an international peace treaty to stop global conflict.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to present two petitions today, the first of which is an e-petition that received over 1,000 signatures from Canadians across the country, and particularly from my riding of Saanich—Gulf Islands. It is a civil society-based effort, launching as well this week in Victoria, with support from many nations around the world. The petitioners hope that Canada will take the lead in seeking the ratification of an international peace charter. The petitioners note that global conflict is increasing and geopolitical instability threatens lives and livelihoods, and of course peaceful coexistence all around the world. In pursuit of an international peace charter, the petitioners have developed a strong campaign calling for self-determination, finding truth and countering disinformation, and promoting human dignity, diversity, justice and accountability. I am honoured to present this petition today.
