Madam Speaker, as a member of the Bloc Québécois, I am always surprised to hear our neighbours across the way point out what Mr. Harper has done. Apparently, Mr. Harper has made a big impact on politics, based on how often they mention him. Now, for my question. The member mentioned the fact that a resolution passed at the Liberal convention this weekend—one that was akin to a form of media censorship—would be dangerous. What should we think of a Prime Minister who gets his information from the newspaper rather than CSIS?

Mr. Speaker, at their convention, the Liberals came up with a solution to the Chinese interference issue: stop the media from reporting on it. This was literally one of the resolutions that the Liberals passed last weekend. As they see it, the problem is not that China helped or threatened members and their families; the problem is that the media talks about it. It is disgraceful. To slough off the burden of dealing with Chinese interference, the Liberals have proposed a solution worthy of the Chinese Communist party. Can they assure that House that any consideration of this solution is out of the question?

Madam Speaker, I would like to ask my esteemed colleague how much control would be appropriate if he does not think that the government should have full control over broadcasting and online media.
