I want to thank the member opposite for his comments. He went the full hour, and that was a nice counterpart to the minister going the full hour. I don’t know if we need a members’ protection act about the length of speeches, but I’ll leave that to people smarter than me.

I also am a member of the justice policy committee, so I had heard the member’s comments and we had extensive hearings there. I think that the member is correct: I think there’s agreement on both sides of the House that the act is old, the act needs strengthening, and that this takes significant steps forward to do that. It may not have everything the opposition would like.

My question is simple: My question to the member opposite is, will he support this bill on third reading?
