Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague from Brossard—La Prairie for his question. God knows he is right to be unhappy that the government has so little regard for the committee's recommendations and witness testimonies.
In the committees I work on, there have been many occasions where we felt we were making a sincere and real effort to do good parliamentary work. We kept in mind we were serving Canadians. Taxpayers pay us and hope that Ottawa uses public funds as wisely as possible to manage situations.
Sadly, the government's editorial strategy and the way it uses its majority as a steamroller create the impression that any arguments we make are dismissed; everything is presented with a partisan flavour, so the government can feel it has solved the problem and is the possessor of the absolute truth, which is really unfortunate.
There is no Latin quote I wish to add.
