I think he is just trying to co-operate very hard, as promised.
Mr. Speaker, I also know that Liberal voters, the ones who did not vote for me, the ones who were enamoured by the new Prime Minister's promise of change, would find these to be eminently sensible amendments that are necessary. Therefore, I am shocked. I cannot understand why the Liberal House leadership has signalled that the Liberals will vote against these amendments. In so doing, they would cheapen the value of Canadian citizenship, betray the permanent residents and refugees who are working so hard to meet similar requirements, betray the generations of Canadians who work to build Canada strong and betray their own voters, who expected change from Justin Trudeau's woke radical agenda.
I have more time, but I do not think I even need it. I would rather hear from the Liberals. I am dying to hear from the Liberal members in the House today which of these amendments they could possibly be planning to vote against. Will they stand up in this House and say which ones, and why? I am as eager to explain this to their voters as the Liberals are eager to hide it.
If the Liberals pass the unamended Bill C-3, I will have a very, very hard time explaining to their voters why on earth they took our amendments away. I will have a very hard time explaining to Craig Norris of the Kitchener-Waterloo CBC radio program why it is that, after this promise of co-operation, it was withheld and the rug was so abruptly pulled out from under us.
If, conversely, it is the case that the Liberals are not willing to say which of these amendments they plan on voting against, then I implore them that there is still time. They can do the right thing. They can side with us, the Conservatives, to protect the value of Canadian citizenship, instead of siding with the radical left to denigrate it.
I thank the members for the co-operation I see coming up.
