Mr. Speaker, I listened with some interest to the member opposite and as usual his Reform rhetoric and his holier than thou position.
I noted that the Reform Party, the great party of less government that always espouses such, has been screaming for government intervention for some time now in this matter. Apparently it would be that the Reform Party thinkers believe that less government is always a preferred policy approach except when Canadian workers are exercising their legal rights. At that point it would appear, according to the hon. member and his party, state intervention becomes more acceptable.
My question to the member is, why the double standard? Why does he say one thing for one circumstance and quite the contrary for another? I would like to hear the answer.
