Mr. Speaker, with all due respect, I think the member is completely wrong. I am certain that the majority of her constituents, like the vast majority of Canadians, want to see serious foreign criminals removed faster.

Polls show that more than 90% of Canadians support the intent of this bill.

Is it really democratic for the opposition to stall the passage of a bill supported by more than 90% of Canadians? No. I think that the government reflects Canadian consensus on this issue.
