Mr. Speaker, so many pieces of the member from Winnipeg North's speech did not make a lot of sense. A couple of things were regarding Bill C-14. The Liberals were the ones who decided to defer Bill C-14. The member mentioned the BIA. Portions of that are going to be looked at in the public safety committee. The minute that motion came forward, we all voted in favour of looking at it right away to move it in front of other things, so what the member said is simply not the fact.
We also talked about Bill C-16. We support a lot of Bill C-16 , but we do not support that it would take away the mandatory part of minimum sentences.
The last note I have is that the member talked about filibustering. The member for Ajax, a near-neighbour of mine, is a parliamentary secretary. She has stood up in the House and spoken 32 times so far this session. The member who just spoke has filibustered; he has stood up 1,250 times.
