Madam Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his speech. However, I am having difficulty reconciling two things.
During the election campaign, the Liberals talked about ending the combat mission. In his speech, my colleague said that the proposed mission is more dangerous. That is a comment, and not my question.
My question is about this famous Arms Trade Treaty. We know that the Conservative Party did not want to sign it.
Today, I heard one of the parliamentary secretaries say that the minister was seized of the matter. I do not believe there is much to consider because I would think that an agreement is better. It is a quick and easy solution that the government could implement to slow down arms sales in the region, and it would also have a positive effect in the region. That is the type of solution that the NDP is proposing.
Could my colleague give me a timeline and tell me, if the minister is so seized of the matter, when will we finally have a decision?
