Mr. Speaker, that is not the point. The members opposite should try to show a glimmer of intelligence for once.
The issue is whether we are going to take a back seat to global progress. Will Liberals refuse to have a real debate, as they are asked, and in particular to hold a forum at the finance committee? I have asked for a two to three-day forum bringing together experts from Quebec and Canada.
We could examine the pros and cons of a monetary union, see what the conclusions could be drawn and prepare members of parliament to hold debates which would be more enlightened than those we have heard today from the Liberals and the New Democrats in particular. That is what we are asking for.
