Mr. Speaker, what it demonstrates is the total and utter contempt that the government has for Parliament and for the supremacy of Parliament.
We have Liberal members challenging the validity of a Speaker's ruling. They are trying to defend what is tantamount to the blatant obstruction of a clear and unequivocal order of the House. I would note that it is not an isolated incident. This, again, is part of a pattern of the Liberal government, which, for instance, blocked the production of documents relating to the major national security scandal at the Winnipeg lab, forcing the Speaker of the House at the time to go to court.
It is part of a pattern of cover-up and corruption by a rotten and corrupt Liberal government.
