Mr. Chair, no, I would certainly not say there is a consensus for that in any way. I think that I can speak on behalf of my colleagues here in the official opposition that we, as the official opposition, believe the words that were used by the chief government whip that we must do everything we can to ensure that this kind of a leak does not happen again, that the government must take this seriously.
I think it's quite clear in our attempts, in our efforts, to try to make sure that we do our job, do it with its proper due diligence, and ensure that the government is held accountable and is able to have an opportunity to be transparent, that those who have these clouds now hanging over their heads, thanks to the actions of the.... I'm sure it's no fault of the individuals here today. I'm sure they were given their direction as to how to vote. That's unfortunate. Now with these clouds hanging over the heads of the Prime Minister and his office, there are also clouds hanging over the Minister of Health.
Certainly I'm sure Canadians, based on the pattern of what they've seen and what they've seen today, will have all kinds of questions about the lack of accountability and the lack of transparency being displayed by this government. We're simply hoping there would be an opportunity for that to be cleared up and for there to be some light shed on this for Canadians. It's quite clear that's not the intention of this government, and that's very unfortunate but, no, there certainly isn't consensus that nothing further needs to be done here.
I will make it very clear that we, as the opposition, believe that we need to do our job and ensure the opportunity for accountability and transparency.
