“I support this bill because it creates a commission that can actually punish companies with fines. Does the Conservative Party support this commission?”
“Mr. Speaker, what I like about the legislation is that by establishing the commission it does not just talk to it. My understanding is that there would be between three to five members on the commission who would have the ability through regulation to put in fines, and so forth. The commission would actually have teeth. I think that is so critically important. Does the Conservative Party in principle support the concept of having that commission?”
