Mr. Speaker, the Liberals, unfortunately, are going to find themselves in another part of this House after the next election because they refuse to stand up. It will be an NDP government fixing things. I commit that one of the things that we would never do is use or misuse the Board of Internal Economy for partisan purposes. The member knows full well what was involved in that scandalous time under the Harper government where we saw basic parliamentary institutions slashed. The Auditor General's department was slashed, the PBO was slashed and the Board of Internal Economy was used for partisan purposes. It simply was a low time in our democracy. Fortunately, an NDP government would enhance our institutions not diminish them.
In the House of Commons on November 18th, 2024. See this statement in context.
