Chair, thank you for that. I'm glad to have the confidence of this committee to finish my thought before handing it over to the very capable Mr. Perkins to continue.
When it comes to the substance of this amendment, it ensures that it has teeth and that it doesn't simply skirt over the substance of what Canadians deserve answers to with regard to a massive—absolutely massive—government expenditure. We're talking thousands of dollars for every Canadian family.
Chair, I will ask to be put back on the list; however, I would simply say that we saw before how the NDP flipped and voted against the common-sense, very practical motion that we brought forward. I suspect that pressure the Liberals applied then.... I would hope they reconsider and serve Canadians, not their political masters within the Liberal Party.
