I just want to correct the record, as my integrity was questioned by Mr. Genuis and he suggested that I lied about or exaggerated what happened.
On March 21, 2024, at approximately 9.30, Mr. Lloyd asked a question of Commissioner Duheme of the RCMP and, with Anne Kelly sitting right here in this room—the Conservatives pretending that this is a priority for them, only to filibuster—then said, “With that, Mr. Chair, I would like to quickly move to a motion that I gave notice of last committee”, and went on to move that motion on carbon tax.
To pretend that this is a matter of importance because they don't want to discuss a bill that they claim to support—that Mr. Genuis, I'm sure, has gotten up in the House to support—is shocking. Then to suggest, having not been here, that I'm exaggerating what happened when it's clearly in the record.... Their priority is whatever it will take to delay this committee, and they will use whatever. Whether it is a crime, horrific facts, something horrific that happened to a community, they don't care. It's about chaos and delay. It's not about hearing about the witness. It's not about protecting children from child pornography. What is happening is genuinely shocking—
