“We will debate this bill for as long as it takes. The government should not cut short our debate. We offered to pass the first part of the bill, but they refused.”
“Mr. Speaker, we have heard from various members on that side of the House that it is 25 hours. There is no number of hours that will replace democracy in this place. That is what we are arguing tonight. We are going to stay as long as we can and as long as Canadians have sent us here to pass legislation. We offered them part 1. They said no, and that is on them.”
