While it's all very well to hear from my colleague that he has not yet achieved Mr. Lamoureux's capacity for hot air, he should get back to the subject at issue, because things are getting a little bit out of hand. At least he was waxing lyrical in his latest comments. Before that, we had Mr. Dreeshen, telling us that he hoped Canada would export its oil everywhere for peace. Then there was Mr. Falk explaining that he liked big engines and plastic straws for his milkshakes. It's lyrical, interesting, and keeps us awake.
So I think my colleague should make a special effort, because reading us a newspaper story just doesn't cut it. If he hears a sound, it's probably the interpreters falling asleep. Please give them something to think about. If my colleague could put a little more emotion or passion into his parliamentary obstruction, I think everyone would be very grateful to him.
