Mr. Speaker, I was entertained by the parliamentary secretary to the government House leader's speech.
Every time I have risen in the House before to speak to legislation, the parliamentary secretary has accused us of filibustering and not allowing legislation to go to committee quickly enough. Now that the Liberals want to assert their majority to get a majority on committees, will he undertake and commit today to stop the rhetoric about how we should stop debating legislation in the House?
We have a right to stand here with our opinions. He seems to want to have co-operation until he does not. At the immigration committee, we passed substantial and reasonable amendments to legislation that were only overturned when it came back to report stage.
I wonder if the parliamentary secretary would commit today to being more collaborative in reality and not just in rhetoric.
