Mr. Speaker, there is one thing on which I can agree with the government member. We have been saying it to the government for three years now. Even before the first budget was brought down by the Minister of Finance, and before every budget since, we suggested that the government create a special working committee including not only experts chosen by the government, but also some hon. members from every party in the House. That would be the right way to have a problem studied not only by experts, but also by members of Parliament who, because they have been elected by their fellow citizens, are responsible for ensuring openness and for making sure that the government's recommendations will not favour a social class over the others. That is what we want. That is what we have been recommending for years to Parliament and to the government. But the Minister of Finance, the Prime Minister and the Liberal Party as a whole rejected our proposal.
Our proposal is still on the table. Tomorrow morning, if the Minister of Finance wants to strike such a committee, he will find us ready. We will be the first to bring a positive contribution, to offer suggestions, and to sell them to the people affected by the measures.
