Once again, I would like to refer to the lack of definitions. This question has been addressed by many witnesses. Despite the Conservatives' attempts to make us believe that there was a definition of what constitutes doing something in a "partisan manner", there is none. This is very much a concern, particularly because there is already a similar definition. It may conflict with what appears in the Public Service Employment Act, and that concerns us.
The Conservatives would have us believe that the expression "partisan manner", or "façon partisane", is defined, whereas it is not. We tried to define it by means of our amendment, but it was unfortunately negatived. That is why we will vote against clause 8 of the bill. We cannot simply support a measure that would permit a witch hunt because we have no definition of what constitutes something that is done in a partisan manner. That is our main concern, and we have tried to correct the problem by the amendments we have introduced. They have been negatived. We will therefore vote proudly against clause 8.
