Mr. Speaker, first, there is no such limitation on the rights of Canadians contained in the bill. That is precisely the nature of the misinformation that has been the subject of the back-and-forth that we saw in the previous question. There are people who have real concerns. Those real concerns can be addressed by sharing valid information and by engaging in making changes where appropriate.
On the issue of limiting debate, I would point out that this bill has been debated now for nearly six months. It was tabled in September of last year. We moved to clause-by-clause in late November, almost four months ago. This bill has 12 clauses and is only a few pages long. The reason it has taken so long is that there has been no participation in debate by the party opposite. Instead, members opposite have used every opportunity to obstruct and filibuster to prevent that debate from happening.
When months have gone by, and when we have demonstrated a willingness to look under every stone, have every conversation and hear every argument, but the Conservatives continue to obstruct, at a certain point, we have to realize that Canadians expect the members they elect to the House of Commons to behave like grown-ups, advance legislation and allow full debate, but not obstruct just for the sake of obstruction.
