First of all, Madam Speaker, I appreciate the work the standing committees do. I recognize that, as a government, we are a minority. If the Bloc and the Conservatives choose to take certain actions, at times that could cause some issues where the government might need to see some sort of adjournment.
I think there is a practicality in what takes place at committee. I do not sit on that committee. I spend a lot of time inside the chamber. That is the reason I made the suggestion that we could, from my perspective, sit until midnight. That is why I asked for unanimous consent. I do not have a problem doing that. I will even go beyond that if it makes the member happy enough. I know we can get some legislation passed. It would be a wonderful thing for Canada and all Canadians.
