Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'm going to share my time with Mr. Carrier.
We will have to vote on Bill C-50 today or in the next few days. Personally, as an elected representative, I attach considerable importance to the votes we hold and in which I take part. That is probably our first duty as legislators.
I'm convinced that the provisions of this bill are too serious and too harmful for us to let them continue through the legislative process. For that reason, I believe we should vote against them immediately and close the debate. What is being proposed is unacceptable. That's my opinion.
I would like to have the opinions of each of you. What would you do if you were members of Parliament? Are you recommending that members vote in favour of this bill, vote against it, or abstain?
