Mr. Speaker, I would like my colleague from Lévis—Bellechasse to elaborate.
As I mentioned earlier, the Bloc Québécois supports Bill C-53 because it is a good thing to have recourse to the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes when dealing with international treaties between governments or agreements between corporations and foreign governments. We are pleased with this and we will support Bill C-53.
However, there is a problem. Treaties signed by the Government of Canada with other countries are not submitted to this House for review. I would like my colleague for Lévis—Bellechasse to elaborate on this and tell us if he is prepared to undertake that, in future, the Conservative government will not sign an international treaty with any country without submitting it to Parliament for examination. This will avoid potential errors. In fact, 308 individuals are better than 100.
This will allow us to ask all the necessary questions in order to avoid making mistakes and finding ourselves before the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes.
Will my colleague from Lévis—Bellechasse show us the authority he is capable of and assure this House today, on behalf of his party, that, in future, no international treaty will be signed without being submitted for review to this chamber of Parliament?
