My guess, and I've said this for a long time, is that Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. next week is when we would rise. That's my best guess.

The Chair Conservative Tom Lukiwski

Before everybody came in, Marc was suggesting we should have a pool on when we rise. I said that for the nine years we were in government, I negotiated when we got out of here, so I always won that pool.
