Mr. Speaker, the member says to work together. He makes reference to having safe streets. On the other hand, there was an election platform from the Prime Minister to bring forward bail reform legislation. The Conservatives have done anything but be co-operative on the legislation. This is legislation that should have passed by now. Canadians deserve bail reform legislation. This is legislation that provinces, law enforcement officers, stakeholders and Canadians want. The roadblock is the Conservative Party of Canada.
Regarding the budget debate, once again, Conservatives want to continue to debate and debate instead of allowing the bill to go to committee. The only thing that the Conservative Party has been able to demonstrate in the last number of weeks is that they know how to continue to be a destructive force on the floor of the House of Commons.
Does the Conservative Party have an ounce of shame to recognize that what they are doing does not serve the best interests of Canadians?
