The House proceeded to the taking of the deferred recorded division on the amendment of Mr. Van Popta (Langley—Aldergrove), seconded by Mr. Muys (Flamborough—Glanbrook), — That the motion be amended by deleting all the words after the word “That” and substituting the following:

“the House decline to give second reading to Bill C-33, An Act to amend the Customs Act, the Railway Safety Act, the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, 1992, the Marine Transportation Security Act, the Canada Transportation Act and the Canada Marine Act and to make a consequential amendment to another Act, since the bill fails to improve supply chain efficiencies, address rail service reliability, improve labour relations, and weakens the ports’ ability to fulfill their mandate with an Ottawa knows best approach.”.

The question was put on the amendment and it was negatived on the following division:
