I do not think that Mr. Savage's suggestion is very useful, because it would force us to vote against every single clause. Let me explain why. If by chance we were to vote in favour of each clause, then we would be assuming that section 14 would be amended in the process. However, that is not a given.
If, after all of the clauses have been adopted, the key provision that is causing the problem is not amended and a recommendation is made to refer the bill to the House, we will have helped to create a situation that is not in the interest of the provinces and Quebec. For that very reason, I suggest that we consider immediately dealing with section 14 in some way other than with a standard amendment.
