Mr. Speaker, I respect the views of the hon. member for Kootenay—Columbia and I will have something to say later on the subject of judicial activism.
On the issue of simultaneity of action to appeal courts and by this parliament in relation to invocation of section 33(1) of the Constitution, would the member not accept that this would render moot in legal terms proceeding with the appeal process before the supreme court? I do not unfortunately think one can have both courses at once.
