Technically, John—let me explain it to you—because amendment G-1A effectively dealt with (a) and (c) and now is dealing with (b), which is exactly where amendmen
t L-1 would be, and technically speaking, amendment L-1 came before amendment G-1A, I think I'll stand amendment G-1A for a moment and let you speak to amendment L-1, if you want (Amendment allowed to stand) Mr. John Bryden: If members would turn to amendment L-1 in their book and then compare it to paragraph 3(g), they will see that I'm simply substituting for “a free and democratic society”, which is a phrase that is in section 1 of the charter.It's the preamble to the charter,
...[+++] and the charter can be read as the various provisions of the charter: respect for human rights, the procedures of a democratic society, and so on and so forth.
En principe, John—permettez-moi de vous l'expliquer—,comme l'amendement G-1A traite effectivement des alinéas a) et c) et porte maintenant sur l'alinéa b), sur lequel porte précisément l'amendement L-1, techniquement, l'amendement L-1 précède l'amendement G-1A. Voilà pourquoi je réserverai l'amendement G-1A pendant un instant pour que vous puissiez parler de l'amendement L-1, si vous le souhaitez (L'amendement est réservé).
