Mr. Speaker, a few days before the final vote a call went out to Canadians from coast to coast to coast to come to Quebec to show their solidarity with Canada.
Members of Parliament from every political party responded to that call. Unfortunately of 52 Reform members of Parliament, 51 of them were too busy doing other things to respond to the call to Canada.
We have a responsibility as members of Parliament with our constituents to continue to work for a better democracy. Hopefully the next time the Reform Party will be working with us and not against us.
