Madam Speaker, less than a year ago, Canadians elected a new Prime Minister. A part of the Liberal election platform was that we would deal with the issue of hate, which is very real and tangible. We brought in legislation months ago, and the Conservatives have made the decision that they do not want to see the hate legislation.
The Conservative Party does not make up the majority of the members of Parliament. The Conservative Party's intention is to never let the legislation pass, even though it was a campaign commitment. Another opposition party has decided that it is time we allow this legislation to pass. Therefore, we have a majority of members of Parliament saying that it is time. How is that anti-democratic?
The only party that is being anti-democratic on this issue is the Conservative Party, because its members refuse to accept the legislation in terms of allowing it to go through the process when a majority of MPs want to see it go through the process.
