Madam Speaker, I think it is important to say that when the member starts to give a false narrative that somehow the Conservatives are not to blame for this filibuster, I think it is really unfortunate and definitely misleading.
Let us be real here. We have had close to 200 speeches delivered by the Conservatives and numerous concurrence reports brought in by the Conservatives, all in an attempt to filibuster the House. The motion we are debating says that the issue needs to be advanced to the procedure and House affairs committee. That is the Speaker's ruling, and that is the motion that was introduced by the Conservatives.
The Conservative Party of Canada, in the self-interest of the leader of the Conservative Party, is playing this irresponsible multi-million dollar game. To try to give an impression, in any fashion whatsoever, that it is not the Conservative Party that is to pay for this particular irresponsible behaviour is wrong, outright wrong.
Would the member not agree, at least, that it is a Conservative motion that we are actually debating, and that it is the Conservatives who put up speaker after speaker after speaker? It is a false argument to try to express anything otherwise.
