Mr. Speaker, it might tell us about a House leader that is not able to shepherd things through the House properly.
The Liberals make Mulroney look like a slowpoke. It took him nine full years to invoke closure or time allocation on debate 66 times. It has taken this government barely six years to do it 67 times. It has done it one-third faster.
Here is another dandy quote. This one is a doozie. It is from a Liberal who flew a little too close to the sun. I quote:
It displays the utter disdain with which this government treats the Canadian people.
That was the Minister of Foreign Affairs back in his days of purity in the opposition. If shutting down debate 66 was utter disdain, what is 67? Is it contempt?
