Corrections and Conditional Release Act Mr. Speaker, the issue today is that if the Liberals do not like the narrative or the message coming from others, they will do everything to tarnish their character. We have seen it with the former attorney general, one who still sits among their very own ranks. That is shameful.

Corrections and Conditional Release Act Mr. Speaker, I guess the question today is whether the Prime Minister admits he was wrong. Our hon. colleague is a good soldier.

National Defence Act Madam Speaker, it is the Liberal way. They have to study something that is just common sense. It is unbelievable.
