You should be.
This is a piece of legislation that you are attempting to water down. It is very clear. I may have a drink of water, or I must have a drink of water. If my doctor said, “You may have a drink of water,” or “You must have a drink of water,” I shall have a drink of water, or I must have a drink of water. You are definitely trying to water this down. There are no two ways about it.
I would ask, Mr. Chair, through you, that we call the vote.
I don't know if there are more people on the speakers list. I am not trying to filibuster this. It may seem like it. I'm only trying to fight for it, actually. I think it's a common-sense piece of legislation.
I just think that, again, they're wordsmithing. They're trying to play...not “they”. I won't lump everybody into that, but Mr. Naqvi is trying to skirt or at least is trying to provide the Liberal government with a grey area where it may or may not follow through with its responsibility.
Mr. Chair, I would ask that you call the vote.
