“The Liberal government waited until the last minute to appeal the court ruling, well after Richmond and British Columbia did. They limited what their own lawyers could say in court. They have stayed silent for eight months and still will not give clear answers.”
“Mr. Speaker, would my colleague on the other side not admit that the Liberal government did not appeal the ruling until the very last moment, long after the City of Richmond and the Province of British Columbia had done so? Would he not admit that the Liberals gave their lawyers the restrictive directive to tie their hands in court? Does he not admit that they have been silent for eight months and that, still, to this day, they have not given us any clarity?”
