Mr. Speaker, it has been said by the Reform Party that the road to Parliament was made easier for Liberal women.
I rise to remind this House that Liberals sought the best candidates. They searched for and found top quality people in order to assist the Prime Minister of our government to do what is right for Canada. We were elected because of our commitment
and experience. Women and men in the Liberal caucus know that we have an obligation to serve this country through good government.
Nellie McClung, an early leader of women's rights, is quoted as saying: "Never retract, never explain and never apologize. Get the thing done and let them howl".
Certain members may find that all they know is how to howl, but our caucus, women and men, have joined our Prime Minister in getting the job done.
