Madam Chair, I think our colleagues from across the table are very undemocratic. We have once again heard the broken record from the Prime Minister's Office. I don't see what they have to hide or what they're afraid of.
This amendment shows us that the government has been playing owner and preventing democracy from unfolding. A committee is sovereign and free in its parliamentary activities. The committee decides what it wants to discuss and how, and that is why we can propose this amendment and overturn your ruling.
Since we have begun the discussion, I will say that I am completely opposed to this amendment. Opinions on this have been issued by the government and by the two opposition parties. I don't see what else the Conservatives have to hide. They think that democracy is practised in camera. I am completely opposed to this amendment.
