| Message | Mr Speaker, After producing countless bills filled with nonsensical attacks on the rights of minorities, finally the CCA have come to their good senses and introduced a bill that we can all abide by. Perhaps our recent election victory has inspired them to see sense and put their good faith in the lord. This party would support such a bill in its entirety. |
