Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his comments. They were very interesting.
I know this has been brought up already today, but I want to hear from the member about it. We know that Bill C-11 does not explicitly deal with political parties, and we have heard members within the government and from the opposition parties ask that it be included.
If the member could comment on why this was not included in Bill C-11, that would be great.
