Mr. Speaker, I have found in recent weeks that the government is short on inspiration. No one really knows what direction it wants to take. The schedule changes randomly. As my colleague, the foreign affairs critic, has said, the government introduced a very significant but very flawed bill.
Why is this government introducing such a significant bill at the last minute? This bill has international implications for Canada.
Also, why is the government imposing a gag order and bypassing important steps, thereby preventing this significantly flawed bill from being properly studied?
What is going on? What are the government's priorities, especially in terms of Canada's reputation on the world stage?
