Mr. Speaker, I would like to remind the hon. member that I would be happy to take credit for the growth in the GNP in the early nineties. Unfortunately this party was not the government at that time. However, there was not very much growth if he will recall that time.
As far as this being on the agenda for the first ministers' conference, as I mentioned a few minutes ago, the agenda has not
been set up yet. The finance minister has already stated it will be on the agenda and surely that is enough to satisfy the member's question right now.
