Mr. Speaker, my question for the Liberal member is similar to the one I asked the Conservative members. The Bloc Québécois supports the bill concerning the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes.
Does my colleague agree that it is good to have a centre that will resolve disputes and act as a tribunal, but that it would be even better for international treaties to be subject to a vote in Parliament?
Earlier, I put the question to two Conservative members, and they were clearly avoiding answering the question. They did not want to commit to this in the House.
Today we will vote on this bill in order to use the convention and to be able to call on ICSID. But signed treaties should first be subject to a vote in Parliament. Does my colleague agree with me on this?
