Mr. Speaker, the only commendable feature of the revamped scheme is that it will allow MPs who put principles ahead of pork to opt out. My colleagues and I are opting out of this obscene plan. I trust we will be joined by the Minister of Finance, by the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, by the Minister of Human Resources Development and by the Deputy Prime Minister.
Who will be the first to follow the Reform Party's lead and renounce their gold plated MP pension plan? Will the minister answer the question now by rising to his or her feet?
