“Mr. Speaker, I was interested by what my Conservative colleague just said about Stephen Harper’s majority, which was won through votes. The last time the Liberals won a majority through votes was in 2015, with Justin Trudeau’s promise of sunny ways, and we know where that got them. This was followed by minority governments because Canadians were dissatisfied with this Liberal government’s performance. We saw what happened again in the last election, in 2025. I guess what I am saying is not interesting to the members who are speaking right now. Mr. Speaker, for those who just arrived, I was saying that there are a few rules here, including showing respect for those who are talking. They may not be used to having such large numbers in the House. They will get used to it eventually— Mr. Speaker, this end to the day’s debate is surreal. We have definitely seen just about everything today. There are just a few seconds left and I want to let my Conservative colleague answer the question. My colleague saw the debate. I would like to hear his thoughts on the Liberals’ demonstration of what they intend to do with their newly acquired majority. How does my colleague see the coming months and years unfolding? What is his view of the state of democracy and the Liberals’ respect for it?”
