Mr. Speaker, I quote a government news release: “Premiers stressed that negotiations should proceed with a view to concluding the draft agreement by the end of the year”.
If we are stuck on that date, change it. The premiers want change and if there is no goal it does not happen. If there is no target it will not be achieved. We have been sitting for years in the House with the status quo. This system is broken. It needs fixing. It is not working.
Let us provide winning conditions for my children so they will have a great country in which to grow up. If the date is what they are stuck on let us change it to January or February. I have no problem with that at all. If they want to put a motion forward to change the date I am sure they would get the consent of the House. If that is the only problem I suggest they put a motion forward to change it and see what happens.
