Mr. Speaker, I really appreciate the love coming from that particular member. I am happy to sit on the side, if he would like to continue the discussions.
I suspect he is pleased when I am speaking because, 99% of the time, it is about facts. We can contrast that to what he hears within the Conservative caucus, which is a lot of social media spin, not necessarily based on fact. It is quite the opposite of fact. I want to be parliamentary, so I will not go any further than that.
Having said that, I was talking about the answers I received to my questions on this particular report. The Conservative members indicated to me that all we have to do is provide the unredacted reports to the RCMP. However, I will explain why that cannot happen. Even though a majority in the House of Commons supported that particular motion to give the documents directly to the RCMP, it needs to be noted that the RCMP, Canada's Auditor General and other legal experts have made something very clear: It would not be good for Parliament to be giving unredacted documents directly to the RCMP.
The motion, I would suggest, is in borderline contempt of the Charter of Rights, based on what we hear from the RCMP. We are going to listen to the RCMP, the Auditor General of Canada and other legal experts, and we will not produce those papers.
Then the Speaker made a ruling saying that the issue I just raised needs to be sent to the procedure and House affairs committee. His colleagues also said so; this was how they actually responded in their answer to me.
That is what the motion is. It is a Conservative motion, yet the Conservative members are now saying that they are going to put up dozens of speeches or more. I think there have been over 200 speeches on it now. That is even after we factor in the numerous concurrence reports.
