Madam Speaker, two sides can only end up agreeing insofar as they start by not agreeing. If committees are created exclusively between parties that agree on every detail from the get-go, then what is the point? By sealing their fate with a contract, these two parties have basically merged and no longer have the authority to unilaterally set the rules of democracy for other House bodies. They need to sit back down at the table with the real opposition parties and put an end to this monkey business. When will democracy be restored?

Madam Speaker, the House demanded that a committee study the dismissal of the scientists in Winnipeg. Instead of providing the documents to the committee, the Liberals and their NDP accomplices decide to create their own committee, which will operate according to their own rules, without a single care for the other parties. Of course, since it signed a pact with the Liberals, the NDP is no longer a real opposition party. It is contractually tied to the government. So far, not a single actual opposition party has been consulted. What is happening to democracy?
