Mr. Speaker, in the 52 ridings the Reformers won, Reformers outspent Liberal candidates by almost half a million dollars.
That is right. The party that likes to point fingers at others about spending spent over $2.2 million to win its seats. Now, two years after having won those seats, Reformers have told the media they are going to sit in them less. That is right. They spent almost $43,000 a seat and they have said that Ottawa costs too much and they do not like it here.
We have lots of expensive seats on the Reform side but no one wants to fill them. Perhaps it is time for us to have a seat sale.
