Mr. Speaker, does the member not find it very clear that the motion presented to the House is that the government should withdraw its proposal and refer to the proposed recommendation of the committee, which was a recommendation of all the parties? It would be pretty hard to vote against that if we agree to have a democratic committee established to make some recommendations to Parliament. To withdraw from that or move around the motion just brings it to light and it does not mean anything any more.
In the House of Commons on November 19th, 2002. See this statement in context.
