Mr. Chair, I'm listening very carefully to the debate on this amendment, and I can't help but notice something. All the amendment would do is remove 15 lines from the original bill to make us adhere to the Standing Orders of the House of Commons and the rules of the Senate, which we are already required to do.
I can't help but say that the motion the government has put forward—and I'm surprised it was even deemed admissible—would simply invalidate provisions in the original bill that don't sit well with the government. The House has already adopted those provisions, however.
I want to let you know that I will be voting against the amendment.
