Madam Speaker, I just want to ask the member opposite about the reason he just gave. The bill went through the process. It went through first reading and second reading. The committee did its work. Today, we are not seeing very many members asking questions.
We are the only two people asking questions, because we know that everyone has had a chance to speak and share their thoughts.
We know that the small number of changes recommended by the opposition could be considered by the senators. I think that if we give them a chance to do this work, we could move this file forward for the sake of all veterans, the people we work hard for in this chamber.
I hope my hon. colleague will pause for a moment and consider that the way to move democracy forward is to move this bill forward.
Why can he not consider other opinions? Why must he only listen to the Conservatives?
