I listened intently to Mr. Dong when he was speaking, and don't let the facts get in the way of a filibuster. Saying that no money went from the government to WE Charity is patently false. In fact, the Government of Canada gave it $30 million, which WE Charity failed to repay over a series of months. It wasn't until public pressure, it wasn't until this bad deal for taxpayers, this insider arrangement whereby we had the Prime Minister give a half billion dollar agreement to an organization that gave his family members half a million dollars, until opposition members dragged that into the daylight that we saw calls for it to be repaid and the need for a study. This resulted in a parliamentary shutdown and filibusters across the committee, including this.
Look, if the Liberals want to continue this filibuster for many meetings.... I can't speak for, nor would I ever look to speak for other members of the opposition. They are very capable of doing that, and I hope they have the opportunity to do that in further meetings when we continue to be filibustered by this attempt to cover up corruption.
Chair, if we're going to continue this for many meetings, I would move that we suspend this meeting now and continue the Liberal filibuster of corruption at the next meeting.
