Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his speech. I can sense his conviction in defending Bill C-59.
I would like to ask the same question that I asked the member for Drummond. It had to do with the concerns we have about the definition of national security, which includes interference with critical infrastructure.
We think that this could be used to spy on or hinder peaceful protestors, for example, environmentalists, concerned citizens, or indigenous groups who want to oppose the construction of a pipeline.
What type of guarantee can my colleague give that this will not happen and that the bill contains the necessary provisions in that regard?
