Madam Speaker, today is a day of contradictions.
I just heard the minister say that the public expects us to engage in debate, while at the same time, we are presented with a gag order.
We support the bill. Our issue is not with the bill. Our issue is with the debate, with our ability to give bills deeper consideration and potentially enhance them.
Once again, what is the rationale underlying this time allocation? Why is the opposition always being silenced? I would like the minister to give us a clearer explanation.
