Mr. Speaker, I think that, as Canadians, we all have a duty to do our part to protect our borders and ensure the safety of people who are fleeing for humanitarian reasons, because they are suffering abuse. The safe third country agreement is an important bilateral tool. We will continue to work with our counterparts in the United States to modernize this agreement.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to add a question, because the Chair's response will help clarify this issue. Each member will be better informed of the need to wear the proper equipment to speak. At the same time, the response will inform us of the mechanism put in place by the House to verify that the proper equipment is being worn. I just want to clarify my request, and I hope that the Chair will provide us with clarification so we can guarantee the occupational health and safety of our interpreters.

  • Re: Bill C-39 
Mr. Speaker, if anyone is politicizing this issue, it is the government. The intention of Conservative Party members is to ensure the safeguards needed to make sure these types of bills do not come through the House of Commons without any regard to the safety and lives of Canadians. I would ask the hon. member to name at least half a dozen safeguards that he believes would ensure that the dignity, health and safety of Canadians would be well regarded in the bill.
