Madam Speaker, I will attempt to answer this question. However, I fear it might take the rest of the afternoon.
I need not give a report on nine years of Tory government since the people spoke, very clearly, I believe, in 1993. With the exception of two MPs, they were all turfed out of the House of Commons. The message could not have been more clear, I think.
However, with regard to the present Liberal Party, I remember how in 1993 it ran on a platform almost exclusively dedicated to government ethics, claiming it was going to change the way things were done, and so on and so forth.
Those who were crying wolf in 1993 turned into wolves themselves by 1997. They are even worse than the previous Tories. Day after day we hear how the system set up by the Liberals had been planned all along. This is what is so revolting. This is the most serious aspect of this whole affair. One day we will learn that this is not limited to the Department of Human Resources Development, we are of the opinion that many other ministers are involved in this kind of practice to get cash.
