What you are saying is interesting. When prorogation was announced, the people in my riding said we were going to be on holidays and at the end of the day, politicians do not do any work. There is a very negative perception of the role of politicians, especially those in the opposition. The government often tells us that, in any case, we are there to get our pay and twiddle our thumbs.
There really is another perspective on the consequences of this prorogation now. I feel we have understood what was at stake. You are saying that we should perhaps think of a new system of ethics for minority governments. Personally, I have been here for 17 years and I can tell you that, since this government came to power, the perception of the parliamentary system and parliamentarians has changed. I earn my salary just like any member of the party in power, the NDP or the Liberal Party. I feel the role of parliamentarians is important, regardless of their party, because it is a voice that would not be heard otherwise. I appreciate all initiatives, whether Mr White's or yours.
