Madam Speaker, the House adopted a motion last week to allow sitting hours to be extended until midnight. To justify this abuse of process, the government said that it was to limit the use of time allocation motions. We can see today that it was all a sham. Can the minister confirm that the Liberal Party was once again taking us for a ride?

Madam Speaker, while we are on this topic, I would like to ask my colleague a somewhat speculative question. Recently, last week in fact, a motion giving the government the power to unilaterally decide to make us sit until midnight every night, not just until December but until June, was rammed down our throats. These types of motions that give all the power to the government are obviously supported by the NDP. I have a hard time understanding how an opposition party could support such a motion. What does my colleague believe that the NDP got in return?
