Madam Speaker, I just want to say to my colleague across the way that I was really enthused by his speech and I could not contain myself. I do apologize for getting a bit loud, but I do appreciate hearing his voice. It is a voice we do not hear often in this chamber, and it is quite refreshing to see him. I will refrain from digressing too far.
The member talks about an election and this issue. I think it is a very important issue. I would like to ask the member if there is any member of Parliament or any political party that does not agree with the advancement of this question of privilege?
The second comment I would like to make is that the member refers to the Speaker as the government's Speaker. That is not the way this place works. The member has been around for a long time. The Speaker is elected to represent all the good people and to play a very important role. Does the member believe, as per the Speaker's ruling, that this work should go to committee?
The Conservatives have been kind of misrepresenting what the Speaker said. The Speaker said we should be able to call the question and let the committee do its important work. I believe we should have confidence in the RCMP to do its work.
