Madam Speaker, I listened intently to what the hon. member from the third party had to say. Let me raise a whole series of items to which he may wish to respond. The only thing about the zero in three is that in three years we would all have zero. We would all be out on the streets looking for a job.
Concerning infrastructure, I do not know where the member travels but as a municipal person who has travelled throughout his riding, I want to assure him that municipal people throughout Saskatchewan were more than proud of the infrastructure program. They supported it wholeheartedly. I do not know where he travels in his riding but he should get out to my riding in Saskatchewan. He would find that people there are responsive. They said that it was a good program. They would like it to go on.
With regard to his evaluation of MPs, I can assure him that as I travel throughout my riding in Saskatchewan and elsewhere in Canada the attitude and level of respect for MPs will come up depending on what he expects it to come up to. If he wants to downgrade MPs and say that all MPs are not doing their jobs, he should just keep on. However, as an MP who feels he has a responsibility to the public, I will continue maintain that we are there, we are honest-
