If it were not for the responsible study of Bill C-2 that took place in the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee of the Senate, the government would not have had the opportunity to put forth 47 amendments of their own to a bill that Minister Baird earlier claimed had been examined under a microscope by his colleagues in the other place.
Sans l'examen responsable du projet de loi C-2 effectué par le Comité sénatorial des affaires juridiques et constitutionnelles, le gouvernement n'aurait pas eu l'occasion de proposer 47 amendements de son cru concernant un projet de loi qui, selon le ministre Baird, aurait fait l'objet d'un examen au microscope par ses collègues de l'autre endroit.
