Mr. Speaker, today, as I hope all members realize, is the first day of spring. Of course, spring always starts in the west where nice weather has ensured that Vancouver's daffodils are already in bloom.
This has made it possible for B.C.'s most listened to radio station, CKNW-98, to provide members with close to 300 of those beautiful daffodil blooms.
Yes, that is compliments of CKNW. Canadians know good weather and it is all on the west coast, which also happens to be the leader in federal political trends, good common sense and fresh starts.
Members of the House have probably already received their blooms from the Sergeant-at-Arms. If they have not, there is plenty more in the lobby.
To the House, a happy first day of spring from Vancouver, from CKNW and from co-sponsor General Paints.
