Madam Speaker, with all due respect to my friend, I know he is the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Environment and Climate Change, and I would think that he has a lot on his plate in terms of those files. It would have been nice if the government showed the importance with which it treats this issue by having someone involved in foreign affairs or public safety respond to my questions.
It should be well known to those who work on these files that the IRGC has engaged in all these activities. Another review of the process for listing, when the government said a year ago that it would immediately list the IRGC, is just not up to what Canadians expect.
It looks like the government is trying to hide behind long process explanations. Why can it not just answer the question? If the Liberals voted to do it a year ago, why can they not get it done?
Why have they also failed to sanction people under the Magnitsky Act? They have not used the Magnitsky Act, they have not sanctioned the IRGC, and the sanctions the member talked about were all sanctions put in place by the previous government. Congratulations, the Liberals have not removed any of the sanctions the Conservatives put in place—
