Mr. Speaker, I am pleased that the Liberal member mentioned this, because it will allow me to correct some misperceptions.
I did have the opportunity to ask questions about this subject in the House in oral question period, and I am fairly certain that the Liberal member was there because he has been a member of Parliament for a few years now.
With respect to the report, it is pretty simple. It was tabled 18 months ago. We expected the government to read the report, respond and take action. A year and a half later, we are starting to get impatient. Time is passing, and we are wondering what the government is doing.
Why not make sure that the message gets through by asking the House to vote? That is much more powerful than a vote in committee.
