Madam Speaker, that was an excellent speech. I would also like to acknowledge that of all of us, 338 in this House, likely no one has as much experience or perspective on this issue. I want to thank the hon. member for adding to that discourse today. I hear what he said regarding the need for a committee. I also appreciate that he did not just stand up and talk about problems; he also presented quite a lot of solutions.
I also heard my colleague and friend, and others on the opposite side, talk about how responsive various ministers have been and they have appreciated that access.
Since this is an emergency, since we need to move fast, since lives are at stake and we all know how long parliamentary committees take to actually get work done, how is this the most proactive and urgent way to find solutions like the ones that he presented? Why is a parliamentary committee the fastest way to get urgent work done?
