Mr. Speaker, this weekend, Liberals overwhelmingly supported a policy motion that is very similar to and consistent with Motion No. 76, put forward by my colleague, the hon. member for Kitchener Centre. This is extremely positive news, but the Prime Minister is quoted as saying that it would, despite the support of his party, never be a priority for the Prime Minister, because, he says, “The fact is, there is no consensus”.
This motion calls for a national, non-partisan citizens' assembly to find that consensus.
Is “consensus” defined by the Prime Minister as including himself, and otherwise, there is no consensus?
