This view breaks the statement into its steps and names what each one does.

Madam Speaker, Claims · 51 wordsthe hon. Minister of Justice will know that I have never seen a debate closure motion that I liked. I think time allocation is overused. I support Bill C‑16, although I regret that my amendments to extend coercive control to protect seniors from elder abuse were not accepted in this round.¹ The question · 57 wordsPerhaps I can use this opportunity to ask him, since the bill now contains a periodic review, ²if the justice department would not see fit to bring in a bill against elder abuse, specifically dealing with the coercive control of seniors by those who are close to them or make the pretense of being close to them.

Respect · 100

Nothing lost points on Respect.
