I think it's a point of order, Mr. Chair.
I'm okay with what you're suggesting, but I do want to express a concern if I could put it that way. Given the haste with which we do these bills, neither the critic for the NDP nor I was able to be here for witnesses we had called for at the meeting the other day since Bill C-42 was being debated in the House at the same time.
I read the minutes as soon as they were available to me. Based on some of the evidence, especially that from Professor Craig Forcese, there are other amendments that I think could be made to this bill. We haven't heard from the Privacy Commissioner either. Whatever the reason the government has for wanting to push these bills through, we run the risk of not doing an adequate job of our work as parliamentarians because of that haste in doing it, and I just want to issue a complaint. I think that's absolutely wrong. I don't feel we're doing our job correctly. We haven't had time to review all the evidence and make appropriate amendments. We do have amendments, but other information comes up out of those minutes of the meetings I was unable to attend. Why the government wants to move with such haste, I don't know. Haste makes waste. The better thing to do is a good job.
