Mr. Speaker, I will try to be quick. It is too bad because I had a lot of things to say.
First of all, I would like to thank the parliamentary secretary for her comments. I am pleased to see that she is happy to debate the Conservatives' bills. It would be nice to see the Conservatives rise more often to talk about bills.
I wanted to say that similar bills have been introduced before by Liberal and Conservative governments. She should perhaps look at her party's policies.
Our allies have developed more solid parliamentary structures to look after national security. It is unfortunate that we have not done the same. I also think it is unfortunate that we are not striving for a more engaging parliamentary debate on the issue.
