Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for her speech, her eloquence and her passion.
One has to be passionate to be the Member of Parliament for Québec, so I congratulate her on defending her points of view loud and clear. During the incident last October, I was in my riding. That was of great concern to my constituents, who wondered where we were and what was going on. We cannot deny that security is important, whether it be on Parliament Hill or somewhere else in Canada. However, as our national anthem says, we need to keep our land not only strong, but free.
Could my colleague tell us whether Bill C-44 has reached that balance?
