Mr. Speaker, I listened to the commentary from the member for Winnipeg North, who repeatedly said that Conservatives are abusing power. I find that very illuminating in terms of the Liberal mindset on this. They believe that our holding the government accountable and exercising the most ancient parliamentary privilege, which is to call for persons, papers and things, is an abuse of power. I would charge that they are abusing power by defying the order from the House and yourself, Mr. Speaker. Could the member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes comment with his thoughts on that?
In the House of Commons on October 11th, 2024. See this statement in context.
