I hope we can find a way to move this bill forward. If I understand correctly, people's opinions on the intent of the bill are causing a problem. It would have been possible to take advantage of prorogation if, last time, we had been able to see to it that the NDP's proposal directly addressed the concern of the Conservative party. Perhaps it is impossible to specifically address that type of concern, but I find that unfortunate. In committee, in December, the parties were able to discuss a variety of issues. That discussion is really important to a bill of this nature.
I want to ask the NDP whether it is possible to find a way to avoid this kind of problem and whether it thinks these amendments can improve this important bill.
