Mr. Speaker, I disagree with the overall assessment coming from the leader of the Green Party. This bill is indeed a reflection of what came out of the last election. That is the reason it was introduced back in June. It reflects what Canadians wanted to see with regard to building one stronger economy and dealing with specific border issues. It complements the hundreds of millions of dollars in investments for beefing up our borders. This is something Canadians were told about in the last election.
I would question the privacy-related issues. This is the party that brought in the Charter of Rights. We are very much aware of civil rights.
I agree with the member. Let us at least get the bill to committee and see what happens with amendments.
