Madam Speaker, I agree that the Ethics Commissioner should continue his work, but the Ethics Commissioner can only look at a violation in respect of someone furthering a private interest. He cannot broaden his scope to include the broader constitutional principles at play here, principles concerning the rule of law and the division of power between the judicial and executive branches of government. Therefore, this chamber is the one that ought to hold the Prime Minister accountable.
I have truly lost confidence in the Prime Minister and in the government. I have been shaken to my core about what I heard yesterday at the justice committee. It is almost too much to digest in a 24-hour period, but I know one thing. The Prime Minister should resign.
