Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I just want to echo the comments that were made by my colleague, Mr. Cooper.
We've all been back in our ridings. I only know what I've heard from talking with my constituents. There is some significant concern with the matter of foreign interference and the NSICOP report. I think this committee tried to wash its hands of the notion of having a conversation about whether or not this Parliament is compromised, and we shuffled that off to Madam Justice Hogue's commission. She has since come out very publicly suggesting it's not within her mandate to discuss this. I'm concerned. I'm not suggesting we're going to pursue this, but I think the Canadian public is going to pursue it whether we want to or not.
I would be very much interested in hearing what the minister has planned for reassuring the Canadian public about not only the integrity of this Parliament but also the integrity of our elections going forward to make sure we don't have these kinds of shadows rising over top of the next Parliament, whenever that happens to be. There are some important discussions we need to have in that vein.
That's what I've heard from my constituents, so I'll be supporting Mr. Cooper's motion.
