They are sitting over there yapping away. A little yapping here and a little yapping there, but it makes no sense.
This bill could have passed. We could have supported it, we could have voted for it and it would have been part of the present bill because we are not going to see Bill C-68 for a long time.
They can talk all they want, but what they have done is killed democracy and killed this member's bill. That is what a hoist means. If they do not understand that, they should sit with you, Mr. Speaker, to get a few lessons on parliamentary democracy. If they have been conned by their own House leader that this will not kill the bill, they do not understand how parliament works.
I say shame on the government for hurting democracy tonight and for killing this private member's bill.
