Mr. Speaker, the hon. member mentioned he was a business Liberal, which I think might be an endangered species within the Liberal Party, but I will take him at his word on that.
My question to him is this. Here we are debating a programming motion, one that does not allow for a full study of this bill. It does not allow for committee study. It does not allow for the minister to appear before the committee and it does not allow for meaningful conversation and amendments at the committee.
As a business Liberal, would he not agree that we should do our due diligence, have the minister come to committee to explore and debate this bill, and then move along quickly to report stage and third reading, rather than rushing it through in a single night of debate?
