Ted Falk Conservative
“The government has barely half the seats. I want to know why they think they should get 60 percent of the seats on committees.”
“Mr. Speaker, my friend across the way gave a very passionate speech. He implored us to speak to the issues and not about people, so I want to do that. I want to know in what realm he thinks it is reasonable to ask for a 60% majority on committees when the majority that the government has is closer to 50%.”
