Mr. Chair, the idea that we would exile them to the will of the committee in order for them to be able to present amendments to a bill is really unconscionable. Frankly, I think Canadians can see through this quite easily. I keep having visions of the delegation from Kenya that was in my office. What would they think of this? I think they would shake their heads and wonder where Canada is on this and how healthy our democracy truly is under this government. They would be right to ask. I don't think they're the only ones who would be asking that question.
The other issue I have, which I think is fundamental, is that of due process. I've mentioned that this should probably be debated in the House. We're talking about a major change in the way our democratic institutions function in the role of a member of Parliament and the privileges of a member of Parliament. We have no clarity at this point—
