Madam Speaker, just focusing on the timelines, I really wish I could have posed this question for the previous speaker, the member for Cypress Hills—Grasslands, because in response to one of his questions, he said that we need to have this conversation now and deal with this issue now, because it cannot wait.
I moved a motion three times in the last sitting week to extend hours into the evening, not asking anybody to do anything more than just stay in their place to debate this very important topic, and on all three occasions the Conservative Party voted against it. It is as if its members were saying that they do not want to talk about this issue.
I am wondering if the member who just spoke can shed some light for me on why Conservatives did not want to debate such a very important issue.
