I respect that ruling, Madam Chair.
I guess I would appeal to the government and Mr. Komarnicki, who found a way, through the movement of an amendment at third reading, to make a further change that's outside of the scope of this bill, because they feel that it's necessary to improve the bill, to make it better, to make it work better for the soldiers.
I would make an appeal to him—I guess I would extend an appeal that was made by Mr. Duquette today—that we not forget the police who serve shoulder to shoulder with them in Afghanistan, so that they be covered as well; and that the government, in the same way that it has found it possible to move its amendment at third reading, consider moving this amendment as well, so that we can get this done not only quickly to close this loophole for soldiers, but close it for all those who serve in this very dangerous way in Afghanistan and other places in the world on behalf of our government and our country.
