Someone said, “Why are you bringing up filibuster?” Mr. Speaker, I can tell the House that significant legislation has been held up by the Conservative Party because its members just do not want legislation to pass, even legislation they support. We passed bail reform legislation just a week ago, and they apparently supported that legislation. Bill C-20 is now before us, the Build Canada Homes act, and we are getting a very clear indication that the Conservatives are not going to support it. If they are not going to support it, I will pose this question to members opposite: Does that mean we can anticipate that they are going to filibuster this legislation too?
