Madam Speaker, I have to admit that I am flabbergasted. I heard the Conservative member say that there are members on his side of the chamber who have been twiddling their thumbs. I cannot believe my ears.
We in the Liberal caucus work 24 hours a day to support business owners, charities and families in need. We are in the midst of a pandemic. We should all be working in our ridings for our constituents.
I would like to know why the Conservatives do not agree with our proposal to create a committee that would examine all spending during the pandemic and that would be representative of all parties in the House.
They are proposing a committee that can study a whole host of issues and that does not adequately represent all parties in the House. I do not understand why the Conservatives will not accept our proposal to create a committee that could study all of our government's spending.
