This petition is titled “Support for the Passage of the Change of Name Amendment Act, 2023.
“To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
“Whereas sexual offences are heinous crimes, and protecting the community from sexual offenders should always be a priority, especially when these offenders try to change their name or identity;
“Whereas children are the most precious and vulnerable members of our community that deserve to feel safe and protected;
“Whereas victims and survivors of sexual offences live with pain and trauma from the actions of those who have preyed upon their vulnerability and made them suffer physically and emotionally;
“We, the undersigned, petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario as follows:
“To urge the government to ensure that our communities are safe places from sexual violence and offenders through the passage of the Change of Name Amendment Act, 2023.”
I affix my name hereto, and I will give it to page Isolde.
