Mr. Speaker, I just say again that I am committed to the equality of all people in the country, and all politicians as well. When one politician breaks a promise after that promise has been made with real commitment, then it puts all of us to shame.
The Toronto Star in its editorial column states that the Deputy Prime Minister should quit now to help restore public faith in the system and face her voters in an immediate byelection''. The editorial went on to say:
Her departure would also help staunch the tidal wave of public cynicism that has greeted Liberal pronouncements''.
I ask the Deputy Prime Minister, not her little answer man, if she will restore public faith in the political system, live up to her commitments and face the voters of Hamilton East in an immediate byelection? Will she do that today?
