Mr. Speaker, two weeks ago, when I was interrupted by a member calling quorum, I was in the process of discussing the infrastructure program, but an incident occurred. It is worthwhile reviewing it for the House.
It went like this. The Reform Party proposed a motion. While we were debating its motion it called quorum on itself. Then it failed to produce the quorum it had asked for and we had to adjourn the House. I understand from the annals of parliamentary history that this is rather unprecedented.
We always have new things when we deal with the Reform Party and calling quorum on oneself is one of those things. If that were not bad enough, failing to produce it afterward beat it by a bit. In any event it interrupted my speech for two weeks. I am just catching my second wind but I will get around to it.
We have a motion from the Reform Party about infrastructure. It tells us that the government should be in favour of improving treatment of municipal sewage and so on. That is exactly what we are doing through the infrastructure program, the very successful infrastructure program, might I add, which has brought many water, sewer and such improvements to a variety of localities in Canada.
I know the member across the way is saying that is not good.
