Absolutely, if you want to stay here right through, I'm game.

Liberal

Larry Bagnell Liberal Yukon, YT

Okay.

I wanted to say that I'm not totally against what Mr. Moore is offering, but we haven't had a chance to discuss that with our caucus or our critics. He suggested discussing it with Marlene, and I'd be happy to do that, but I don't know when he expects us to do that if he wants to vote right now.

1:55 p.m.

Conservative

Rob Moore Conservative Fundy Royal, NB

I just meant on the issue. I had heard her say different things about mandatory minimums. So I didn't know, and there might have been some general direction, a blanket opposition to mandatory minimums in any way, shape, or form.

I guess we should just get on with it. There might be opportunities to address this at another stage in the House.
