Discussion · Government Orders
Kevin Lamoureux Liberal
“The member has not been listening. Many government members, including from British Columbia, have spoken on this today. This is not just a British Columbia issue. Canadians across the country want reconciliation and unity, but the Conservatives want division.”
“Mr. Speaker, as we know, it is against the rules for me to say whether the member has been in the House or not, but I can guarantee that he has not been listening because there have been many members of Parliament from the government caucus addressing this issue today. If he would have been listening, he would have seen good representation from B.C. However, I can tell the member opposite that this is more than just a British Columbia issue. This is an issue for which, from coast to coast to coast, Canadians as a whole want to see reconciliation. They want to see us move forward in making sure that, unlike what the Conservatives want, there is more unity in the country as opposed to the division they promote.”
