Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech.
The work we do in the House must be transparent, particularly when it comes time to discuss a bill like this. The government is in no rush to talk about this subject. We have repeatedly seen it play this little shell game, at budget time, for example: the little hidden defect, the little Trojan horse.
Once again, my impression is that this bill is hiding things from us. Is the public going to ask what kind of bill of goods they are being sold?
I would like my colleague to say a little more about the fact that transparency must be uppermost in Parliament, in everything we do. As my colleague said a minute ago, this bill comes from the Senate; it does not even come from here. We are the ones who should have written a bill like this.
So in my colleague's opinion, why is the government exhibiting so little transparency?
