Madam Speaker, that was a well-informed speech on the Standing Orders, something that we were desperate for, compared with the last speaker. I thank him for delivering that leadership.
This example that he gives shows the ruinous cost. I am not independently wealthy. I am a new, younger member of Parliament. There are many of us on both sides of the aisle. We could not afford those types of legal bills. I just could not do it. I have no idea what I would do if something like that were to happen, and I am sure my gen Z colleagues feel the same.
I wonder if the member could give a little more clarity as to what the path forward might be for Parliament to try to prevent situations like that from happening and to protect all members, but in particular to bring fairness back to those of us who may not be independently wealthy.
