I shall not pass.
I hear what Tom is saying. Not that his word isn't golden, but the fact remains that we're coming off this main motion, and the government did enter into a filibuster. I haven't checked this, but I think if you just look at the blues, you will see that Tom, as the deputy House leader, made it clear that they didn't think it would necessarily be all that controversial, since it was a matter of what we had been doing in practice and were now codifying. Given the fact that the government started down the road of filibustering that motion, which is their right, I'm looking at this, and all I'm seeing is a willingness to go back, notwithstanding the words of the member, to a scenario in which we could be into a filibuster.
I like playing politics above board as much as possible. As long as I get a commitment that we're going to have a vote on this before we rise, I'm game. But left sort of bare-arsed like this, where we could just return to the mess we were in last time, I'm sorry, it's just not good enough for the NDP, Chair.
