Mark Warawa used to be in my old riding. While I'm not a Cons fan in general, nor a Warawa fan in particular, he used to be pretty outspoken about being silenced by the Conservative party while in the House of Commons. It is/was fairly rare that a member would actively object while in session to being withheld the opportunity to speak when it's his time, especially about their own party, and it's something I respect.

I'm hoping that the reasons he didn't attend the debate were of a more serious nature because the possibility that someone like him is willingly being silent by the directive of his party goes against what he had so often fought for in the past.
