Mr. Speaker, again, I think the only ones who do not understand why it is important to support this motion are the Liberals. I think that everyone in the House is wondering how anyone can vote against this motion. I think that my colleague eloquently demonstrated that.
Now, I would like to take my colleague to another issue.
This government passed Bill C-5 under a closure motion. Does that not fly in the face of what the Liberals have been saying about holding consultations and how everything will be done properly and that environmental laws will be respected?
By making high-speed rail a project of national interest, Bill C-5 would allow them to ignore all these laws.
Is there not a contradiction here?
