I very much appreciate Mr. Temelkovski's vote and Mr. Paquette's half vote; it gives me hope.
The fact is that penalties are provided for under clause 64 that are completely unjustified from a legislative standpoint, given that Canada won. So, companies should not be required to pay any amount of money. In my opinion, all the penalties provided for under this Bill are inappropriate. Committee members should consider that, as responsible parliamentarians, and lower these charges — indeed, all the charges and penalties included in this legislation. We have a responsibility to do that. What we are seeing now are all the penalties being imposed here, in addition to everything else we have already seen and that we will be seeing in the course of this evening or tomorrow morning. That obviously includes the 18 month prison term that the government wants to impose, as well as all the other measures we will be discussing at another session.
