Madam Speaker, we have been talking about this issue for hours, for weeks already. If quick action had been taken at the outset, we would not be held up by this issue today. We could be talking about health, seniors, the fight against climate change and biodiversity. Does my colleague agree with me that we have really become stuck on this issue, and that we could be accomplishing a lot more for the people of this country?

Madam Speaker, I completely agree with the member. I think this is a very serious issue, but the government is not taking it seriously. This is something that I think the government has known about for far too long and has preferred to turn the other way, to ignore it, because it was either not capable of dealing with this or was not willing to make some of the tough decisions that are required to ensure that Canadians remain safe. However, there is no doubt it is a mess, and it is one that has unfolded slowly. This did not just appear one day, but it is story upon story. We must get to the bottom of it.

Madam Speaker, it is a very concerning issue that we are dealing with here. Basically, it was an attack on one member of this Parliament. This being an attack on one member of Parliament, is it viewed as an attack on all members of Parliament?
