Democratic Reform  Madam Speaker, every other time that Canadian governments have made changes, not just adding in little changes, they have tried to use the referendum, and it did not work at the ballot box. They used a ballot box question. Ontario, B.C. and P.E.I. have all tried it. This is fundamentally changing the system.

Democratic Reform  Madam Speaker, I might see things simply. However, the constituents in my riding are very smart and intelligent. They believe that when considering change, we should evaluate current practices versus change. Can the Liberals explain why their options do not include first past the post?

Fort McMurray Fire  Mr. Speaker, I am a proud Canadian, a proud Albertan, and a proud resident of Bow River. It has been tough times, especially in Alberta and some of the communities in my riding, but last week, in Chestermere, Strathmore, and Brooks, the volunteers, businesses, and community leaders, on very short notice, got together and held fundraisers for the toughest of people having a hard time in Fort McMurray.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I do not think there is a false sense of urgency. I am just asking for a specific timeline. The Liberals have stated many times, even today, that we need consultation. That is great, but what we need is that timeline. We are in sectors where investment will occur when they know those timelines.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, in the legal world, if people were not allowed to sue, we would have a problem. Lawyers make money with lawsuits, and the law industry is an incredibly busy and important part of our world. Whenever levels of governments make decisions, there is a recourse in the court system.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I live in a constituency that not only has a large cattle ranching industry with beef to trade, but it is also a large irrigation district, the fourth largest in Canada, and produces many significant levels of high-value crops. Trade is critically important. We trade with many parts of the world.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, it is a real honour to rise today to speak to this important motion as the member of Parliament for Bow River. I would like to acknowledge many of the members in the House today who have shared many different opinions and a lot of knowledge. I appreciate learning.

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the member's contribution to the discussion this evening. One of the challenges I find with this legislation is from my past experience when I was on a board that was attempting to design do-not-resuscitate orders with doctors. It took us a couple of years before they finally agreed to it, and it turned into four levels, not one, of do-not-resuscitate orders.
