Mr Bob Wood (London South): I have a petition signed by 124 people. It reads as follows:
"To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
"Whereas the courts have ruled that women have the lawful right to go topless in public; and
"Whereas the Liberal government of Canada has the power to change the Criminal Code to reinstate such public nudity as an offence;
"We, the undersigned, respectfully petition the government of Ontario to pass a bill empowering municipalities to enact bylaws governing dress code and to continue to urge the government of Canada to pass legislation to reinstate such partial nudity as an offence."
Mr Tony Clement (Brampton South): I have a petition relating to the issue of toplessness, courtesy of the Kennedy Road Tabernacle and the Bramalea Baptist Church.
"To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
