Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Dufferin—Caledon for his speech. I also thank him for his hard work on this bill. He has been working on it for a long time, and he can be proud of what he has accomplished.
Let me play devil's advocate so he can say a few more words. Some people are watching this debate because they plan to criticize Bill C-242. They wonder why we should bother proceeding with the bill if there are ministerial instructions that are essentially the same as what is in Bill C-242.
Would my colleague please comment on that?
