Mr. Speaker, it is always a pleasure to rise on behalf of the people from Kamloops—Thompson—Nicola.
I listened with great interest to my colleague's speech. I find where we really part company is on this idea that we should simply pass the bill because the Liberals think it is good legislation. It is not that there should not be scrutiny, because there is a great deal of scrutiny. Here is a quote: “Part 2 of C-22 enables secret ministerial orders to any digital service Canadians rely on, with no public registry, no parliamentary approval, and no right for Canadians to even know it's happening.” This is not to say that every piece of legislation here is wonderful or every piece of legislation is bad, but we scrutinize legislation.
The member points to law enforcement. Where were those sentiments on the jail not bail act? Law enforcement wanted the jail not bail act. He stood up repeatedly and voted against it. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
