Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague from Dorval—Lachine—LaSalle for her important question. We know what happens when right-wing activists team up with anti-choice politicians to try and take away our basic rights. The only possible outcome is restricting women's rights. Our mothers and grandmothers fought hard for us to have these rights. All women should have freedom of choice and should have access to services. I have a bit of news for the Conservatives: There is no going back.

Mr. Speaker, this is emblematic of how the Conservatives acted when they were in government. They spent more time on symbols than on action. When it comes to our veterans, what did they do? They closed nine veterans offices across the country. When it came to cancer, what did they do? They did not make any investments. What did we do? We invested in the Terry Fox Foundation. When the Terry Fox statue was being desecrated, what did they do? They cheered on the convoy. When it comes to women's rights, what did they do? They campaigned on the Hill and they introduced legislation to make it harder for a woman's right to choose. Give me a break. Some hon. members: Oh, oh!
