Mr. Speaker, I am going to take this opportunity to put a question to a colleague for whom I have a great deal of respect. I hope he will provide a better answer than the very disappointing one given earlier by the Parliamentary Secretary to the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
I would like my colleague to explain to me what the motivation is for moving a motion to limit debate on a bill that will come into force in July. I remind members that it is February.
We proposed that cuts to the GIS stop in March, but the Liberals refused. They are not in that much of a hurry and will only do so in July.
However, the government is in too much of a hurry to let us debate the bill and reveal the Liberals' shortcomings. I would like my colleague to explain that to me.
