I think we've been here for over an hour now. The only person we have heard from is my colleague, Ms. Sidhu. She was reading a prepared statement, as it appeared to me, for an hour. I think that qualifies as a filibuster.
I'm going to take a bit of time, maybe a couple of minutes, to ask why you are putting us through this. I'm an intensive care physician. I spend a lot of time with people at the end of their lives. Not one of my dying patients has ever said to me that they wish they had spent more time becoming a member of Parliament so they could go to Ottawa to filibuster and waste everyone's time to hide a $250-million boondoggle from the taxpayers of Canada.
I honestly implore each of you in this room, members and staff.... What are we doing here?
