On motion before @HoCChamber...
Throughout our new #COVIDー19 reality, we have seen neighbours care in new ways. New levels of courage & sacrifice. Resilience of young and old. Compassion for the vulnerable & caring for the weak... We have also experienced a Nat’l tragedy..[1/5]
Everyone is striving to find the new balance — health, safety, work... Parliament must also find a new balance — between democratic accountability, setting an example as leaders, and protecting health and safety... [2/5]
Such a balance will not emerge from old ways of talking and acting. Not from old partisan patterns...or looking for advantages... Competition is not the way to fight a pandemic. Unity, transparency, and understanding are. Calling on our best selves and highest values... [3/5]
Parliament needs to work in new ways to find that new balance. Failing to do so devalues all the sacrifices Canadians have made. Dishonouring the lives lost and the suffering experienced... [4/5]
In absentia...and in the spirit of finding balance...I support today’s motion to establish a Special Committee on the COVID-19 Pandemic (with one in-person house sitting + two virtual sittings/week) and will continue to participate & debate on behalf of Vancouver Granville. [5/5]
By unanimous consent, the #HoC adopted a motion to allow a minister of the Crown to move a motion concerning proceedings of the House and its committees. Debate happening now...
Vote result: #GovtMotion No. 3 on the conduct of #HoC proceedings during the COVID-19 pandemic was adopted. #cdnpoli
