Mr. Speaker, there is nothing more foundational than how we choose to govern ourselves as Canadians.
We respect the views of Canadians, and we consulted extensively with them on this important issue. We listened to Canadians. We heard that Canadians were proud of our democracy. We have been clear. Major reforms to the electoral system should not be made if they lack the broad support of Canadians.
I look forward to working with Canadians to continue to strengthen our democracy.
