Mr. Chair, I certainly do not think that one hour is too long. I find that my colleague Mr. Wallace is rather optimistic. Through you, Mr. Chair, I would like to inform him that the New Democratic Party is not part of the new Liberal-Conservative coalition. We intend to go through the budget line by line, and to do everything necessary to insure that... You need to have at least two political parties. I can assure you that the NDP will be one of the two political parties that will be looking at the estimates very carefully, using all the tools that we have at our disposal.
