I wish to associate the opposition with the remarks of the Prime Minister. I congratulate the Prime Minister on the initiative of writing to school principals. Parents raise the scourge of bullying with me in all the forums I attend. Parents are concerned with not just cyberbullying but what can happen to their kids at school. A parent's worst nightmare is not being able to protect their kids. Bullying is a tremendously disempowering experience, and I congratulate him on his initiative.
