Mr. Speaker, I wanted to raise a couple of points because in the few minutes I have been listening to this debate I have never heard such drivel of such total lack of logic, devious reasoning, and any lack of understanding of a people governing themselves as a community who believe that together we can have a life that is better than the dog eat dog survival of the fittest mode where only the individual and the one with the strongest fangs or the longest rifle survives.
I have heard a suggestion that not having property rights in the Constitution leads to misery and poverty. I have not heard one example of a country which I could challenge where having property rights in the Constitution leads to wealth and joy.
On the contrary, the United Nations has twice deemed this a country, which has never had property rights in its Constitution,
the most blessed country in the world in which to live based on quality of life and standard of living. That alone I think belies some of the arguments we have heard in this House today.
The least we owe Canadians when we use the time of this House is logic, reason and truth. There has been a fair bit of that lacking in this debate.
