Mr. Speaker, there were a number of points in that question and I will try to address them separately.
First, it does not matter to me how many members spoke to this bill before. What matters to me is whether I was able to speak to this bill for the people of my riding. That is what is essential.
With respect to the second point, I was speaking in the past. We would have liked to amend this bill.
Third, it is hard to follow the member's rambling question, but I think he talked about protecting workers. It is an ironic question because on this side of the House we have no problems speaking up for workers, as opposed to members on that side of the House who spend their time trying to destroy collective bargaining rights.
