Madam Speaker, I enjoyed very much the member's speech and I agree with virtually every point made by my colleague from Churchill.
The timeframe for the imposition of interim orders has been reduced from 90 days to 45 days. It seems to me that like the airport tax where the government picked $24 out of thin air, it has arbitrarily cut 90 days to 45 days but has not established a new principle. The government arbitrarily decided that. This allows a cabinet minister to impose interim orders without getting the ratification of full cabinet for 45 days.
If General Motors were to have a problem with one of its automobiles and decided the automobile had to be recalled, it would only need to get a quorum of the board of directors together and have a vote. This could probably be done inside of about 12 hours with modern technology.
It is stunning to me that the government requires 45 days to do the same thing. I believe a quorum of cabinet is five members. It is ridiculous that the government could not get five members of cabinet together inside of 12 hours with modern technology. I would ask the member to comment on that.
As a social democratic party that has a long history of expressing its concerns vis-à-vis peaceful protests, I would also like her to address the issue of preventive arrests.
