I want to address a comment that was made by Mr. Gottardi, who said that there has been little previous review and that this is undemocratic.
Mr. Gottardi, were you aware that former Bill C-4, Bill C-5, Bill C-16, Bill C-39, Bill C-23B, Bill C-54, Bill S-7, Bill S-10, and Bill C-56, which are the primary components of this legislation, had 49 days of debate in the House of Commons, 200 speakers, 45 committee meetings, and 123 hours of committee study with 295 witnesses who appeared?
Can you square that circle for me, to say how there has been very little study of this legislation?
