I'm good. I know what it says. It just was clear that the amendment related to division, and that's exactly what I was speaking to—the significant division that sadly now exists across this great country related to the policies that the NDP-Liberal government has created. These policies are perhaps not specifically related to Bill C-234, but the difficulty with Bill C-234, of course, is that it's stalled now in the Senate thanks to the Prime Minister's Office trying to stall it there. That's crystal clear in my mind, again, creating more division throughout this country.
Certainly, that is something that we don't need. We know that my colleague talked about productivity and the difficulties that exist there. As I said very clearly in wrapping up, Chair, the difficulties that exist in Atlantic Canada with respect to the affordability crisis and the ability for people to feed themselves, keep a roof over their heads and to heat their homes in the coming winter is a position that is absolutely untenable.
People do not want to simply exist. They would like to thrive, and I truly believe that Canadians have the ability to do so, which is being usurped by the NDP-Liberal coalition. Perhaps, as my colleague would say, it is not specifically related to the NDP part of Bill C-234, but it certainly relates to their support of other government incredibly expensive and not spendthrift policies.
Chair, having had the ability to speak a little bit about Atlantic Canada, I want to make it clear.... It's interesting that my colleagues talk about our wanting to prop up Danielle Smith. I'm obviously not from Alberta. I've never met Danielle Smith and certainly have no requirement to prop up Danielle Smith's government. I think that she's more than capable of doing that herself.
That being said, I do think it's important that people really continue to understand that the job of His Majesty's loyal opposition is to hold the government to account, and when we see things that are not appropriate for all of Canada and are causing division, then I think that it continues to be the job of the loyal opposition to call those out.
That is the style of government that we have. I think everybody around this table knows that. I believe Mr. Blaikie knows that very clearly—the Westminster style of government—and certainly that is something that we, as Conservatives, will continue to support.
I would have to say that the division sowed is troubling to me, and, on behalf of Atlantic Canadians, it is troubling to all of us.
I thank you, Chair. I will cede the floor.
