Some past quotes:
“The concern is that pederasts and paedophiles will advance claims to engage in adult/child sexual relationships as a matter of human rights; that claims will be advanced on the legal grounds that pederasty and paedophilia are sexual orientations having entitlements.” (1996 Senate debate opposing adding sexual orientation inclusion to the Canadian Human Rights Act)
“Bill C-78’s clause 75 is flawed because it is stealthy; it is disingenuous. Honourable senators, sex, sexual activity, sex-like activities and all carnal actions are not a ground on which to found legal entitlements and obligations. Entitlements and obligations flow from social commitment, mutually accepted and given formally, not from carnal actions.” (1999 0Senate debate opposing pension benefits for gay couples)
“Misguided policies in social welfare law, in family law, in divorce law, in child welfare law, in abortion law have resulted in national problems, in our crises of father alienation and fatherlessness.” (2002 speech to International Fatherhood Conference in USA)
Some of her former Liberal Party peers were surprised when "as a black woman" she came out so fierce against gay rights and abortion, starting about 1996 when these issues really rose to the fore in Canada.
