Mr. Speaker, it is not that often that I see somebody with such great passion speak in the House as this member just did, so I applaud him for that. I definitely think that he shows his passion for various issues.
I do have a concern over something he said towards the beginning of his speech. The member talked about how the House was working so well together. He talked specifically about conversion therapy and how it had been passed. The member was in the House, and he saw the games that Conservative members were playing just to delay.
In the 11th hour, just before we were about to recess, the Conservatives finally said, “Okay, we will let this bill pass.” Then it went to the Senate, and the leader of the Conservatives in the Senate started tactics to try to delay the bill. This happened with a number of pieces of legislation, not just on conversion therapy.
Could the member explain to me how he feels the House was working so well together, when in reality we were seeing roadblock after roadblock from the Conservatives?
