Mr. Speaker, I must say, I am disappointed when Conservative members stand up to talk about the issue of extortion when the Conservative Party of Canada is preventing legislation that would deal with extortion, at least in part. I am referring to not only Bill C-2, but also Bill C-14. Those two bills are about bail reform legislation and allowing Canada to have lawful access.
How can the member honestly stand up to talk about the importance of the issue, when, as a Conservative caucus, those members continue to filibuster the legislation, denying Canadians the opportunity for the government to deal specifically with the issues he is raising? How can he do that?
