Thank you, Madam Chair.
I, too, will make some comments. I know Mr. Comartin has indicated he would like to even go beyond what this bill is. How about getting behind this singular, narrow bill and getting it through really quickly? That would be a good thing to do.
I know that under the lights the opposition has taken a milquetoast approach to this. But there were concerns raised about money being there for prisoners in their accounts when they leave prison as opposed to taking all of the funds away through a bill like this. And that's just fact.
In terms of how long it's taking to get it done, the Liberal Party had 13 long years to get it done and this is being done in less than 13 weeks. I would say let's go to clause-by-clause right now and get it done right here and now while we're talking.
