Mr. Jim Pankiw
Madam Speaker, it is rather ironic to hear a Liberal member criticizing Reform Party proposals for parliamentary reform. We have led the way in proposing freer votes in the House of Commons; member recall, whereby members of Parliament would be held accountable to constituents who elected them; and asking for referenda on issues of national concern. The Liberals have rejected our suggestions for parliamentary reform time and time again.
That brings me to the point he raised about negative remarks. There are no negative remarks coming from members of the Reform Party. We lead the way in providing alternative solutions. If it was not for the Reform Party, the Liberal government, no doubt, never would have focused on the deficit. If it was not for us it would not focus on the debt.
Canadians want their taxes to be reduced and we are going to make sure that is done.
