Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member for Vancouver East for her very enlightening speech.
At the risk of repeating myself, I want to say that we are studying this bill at second reading in order to send it to committee. That is why we will be supporting it at second reading.
I would like to take advantage of my colleague's extensive experience—she has already been in politics for 17 years—and hear her comments about the committee stage. Unfortunately, during committee work, government members often join forces and use their majority in each committee to reject expert advice and any proposals that come from the opposition parties.
I would like to know how confident she is about the work that will be done on this bill at committee stage.
