Mr. Speaker, it is certainly the wish of the people of Canada that this place get down to serious business.
I read comments attributed to the hon. member's leader in the newspaper this week where he suggests he feels compelled to introduce a code of conduct on drinking and running around. That is because he had personal knowledge that people in the energy industry used this information to influence the political positions of members of Parliament. I must say I find that position rather reprehensible and abhorrent.
I hope everyone in this House realizes that the job of this Parliament and this government is to get Canada working again and not to spend time passing slurs on members of Parliament.
