Thank you, Mr. Chair.
When you think of Mr. Ste-Marie's amendment, what he really wanted to do was drill down into the aspects of the bill that covered industry, international trade, human rights and immigration. I think he was certainly obviously caring about those issues in good faith and caring about the issues as they would face his constituents in his riding and across the country.

The government needs distractions, because there's a pending RCMP investigation of the Prime Minister for accepting a $216,000 illegal trip from a lobbyist.
