If this piece of legislation is going to pass and the opposition knows it's going to be flawed, I guess here's an opportunity to at least give the government some time to deal with the consequences therein. I think it's reasonable to expect that if everyone here acknowledges the flaws in the legislation—and, as Ms. Collins said, they could have proposed amendments—as Mr. Albas said, I'll march down to Jonathan Wilkinson's office and demand changes. That at least would buy industry and the government some time to deal with it, and would potentially mean the government would have to bring legislation.
I think it's reasonable, especially given the points raised by Ms. Collins and Mr. Albas—about why we don't make it less worse—so this is our attempt to do what the opposition has suggested we do, which is to fix the mess that is this bill. Perhaps this is a minor opportunity to bring some changes to avoid the consequences of this well-intentioned but flawed piece of legislation.
