Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives may want to appear like they have been listening when it comes to Bill C-51, but the three weak amendments they have had to bring forward to their own bill do not even come close to dealing with its fundamental flaws.
Bill C-51 is still dangerously vague and overreaching, and it still ignores proven measures that work to combat terrorism.
When Canadians hear that security services are monitoring protesting veterans and disability advocates, they are right to wonder whether it makes any sense to give these agencies wider powers with no new oversight.
Why does the minister continue to insist that more oversight is not needed when it clearly is?
