Mr. Speaker, I have many questions but I will restrict myself to one, which the member is eminently qualified to answer since he is a constitutional expert.
I believe the role of Parliament is to make laws which the courts subsequently enforce.
Our original motion stated we should include the kind of actions that were undertaken by the member as being under the definition of seditious. Members on the other side as well as the members of the official opposition missed that point. What we want to do is clearly define sedition and counselling sedition.
Talk about losing your freedom of speech, it was taken away from us by the Liberal amendment which deleted every word before the word "that" and every word after the word "that". I think that is the essence. Can we in Parliament pass such a law?
