Mr. Speaker, the issue was whether the Prime Minister would call off the whips and allow his members to have a free vote on that motion.
We know the Prime Minister's backbenchers are profoundly dissatisfied with the health minister's position. They simply cannot justify his lack of compassion and his lack of leadership back home.
Sacrificing a single health minister is one thing, but will the Prime Minister really force every Liberal backbencher to vote against these victims too?
