Mr. Speaker, I appreciate my colleague's interventions here in the chamber. They are always well said and well researched. She mentioned the process in response to the last question, about the committee work about what has been done or, as a matter of fact, what has not been done in terms of accountability.
Michael Geist is one of the experts. I know many of us have quoted him in this House. Thankfully, he has been following and live tweeting, and raising awareness to Canadians about this. I want to read a quote and have the member comment about the committee process. If the government and the opposition parties, the NDP and the Bloc, are so supportive of this, why is this the case? He wrote, “The committee just passed a Liberal amendment to Bill C-10 that has never been made public. Committee is just reading amendment numbers with no information [being] provided. Chair says he cannot given any details. Literally secret law making.”
If the government is so proud of the legislation and the amendments, can the member comment about why this is happening in committee then?
