Mr. Speaker, I think it might be more of a reflection of how the member opposite handles himself in a standing committee. If the member genuinely believes that all standing committees are dysfunctional, I would invite him to attend different standing committee meetings.
I have been in committees when there have been majorities, and it does change the optics; I will give him that much. However, I will also suggest to the member that there is a higher sense of co-operation, which I have witnessed first-hand. Giving a false impression does a disservice to the parliamentary process.
Let us remember, we have had majority governments throughout the years here in Canada, and typically, they work relatively well. Why would we not allow that to continue?
