Madam Speaker, I was really impressed with the hon. member's speech. I came to this country almost 30 years ago and I went through hardships which were probably much easier than those of his parents.
Over the last four years I had an opportunity to travel to Europe and the Pacific rim. Just recently I was an election observer in Bosnia. Last year for the first time I took my family to Europe for a vacation and I had the opportunity to meet a colleague from my childhood in Frankfurt for breakfast. For the two of us it cost 36 Deutschemarks. The same breakfast could probably be bought here for $6.
My question for the hon. member is this. Does he have a better agenda than that of the government? If he does, why does he not tell us? What I heard from NDP candidates during the election campaign was that their agenda was similar to the eastern European agenda.
