Shannon Miedema Liberal
“We are not planning anything bad. We had to choose between taking Conservatives off committees or adding Liberals to them. People preferred adding Liberals so committees can still have good debates.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am sure there are no diabolical schemes happening on this side of the House. I know that there was a decision to make regarding whether Conservatives are removed from each committee or Liberals are added. My understanding was that the more well-received path forward was to add Liberals rather than to take away Conservatives so that we could still have robust conversations in committee.”
