Mr. Speaker, I would like to take exception to a couple of things the member for Saint-Hubert mentioned.
Yes, we are here as politicians and not philosophers. We do not live in a dream world that there is a perfect society and a separate nation. The member accuses the Reform Party of being hysterical, of being paranoid, of having knee-jerk reactions to isolated incidents.
I would suggest to her that there is a bit of hypocrisy here with an isolated incident in Montreal that the whole country was horrified about that they are now demanding strict gun control legislation.
