Denis Coderre at the Justice and Human Rights Committee

I entirely agree with my colleague. I don't know why the conservatives are afraid of voting. All they have to do is reject my motion. I have been a member of Parliament for 15 years, and my idea of democracy consists in respecting members and procedures.

I spent 12 months on this committee in the past. The fact that we are replacing someone doesn't mean we are not familiar with the work.

I support what my colleague Craig Scott said. We have expressed our opinion, and they have expressed theirs. Let's go ahead with the vote, so that we can hear from witnesses. They won't even need to leave the room, Madam Chair.
