Madam Speaker, sometimes marriage can be a wonderful thing. Sometimes it can be a marriage of convenience. Sometimes it is arranged. Sometimes it ends in divorce. Sometimes it never happens. I appreciate the hon. member's question and I will try to answer it fairly succinctly. It is difficult as I am trying to think of the proper answer to it.
I am a Conservative. I have conservative values. I am a fiscal conservative. That does not mean that when I was born someone cut out my heart and threw it away. One can be conservative and still have a heart. If there are inequalities or injustices in the world one can still stand up for the rights of people who have no one to protect them. One can still look at legislation as it exists and judge it one item at a time.
We do not have to agree with everything the government does, and quite frankly I do not. We need to look at the merits in legislation and approve or disapprove it on its own merit.
