Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague touched on something very important. Before I answer his question I would like to say that I know all members of the opposition are in support of the motion. It is really ironic when the motion word for word is a motion that was drafted and supported by the Liberal Party of Canada.
In reality, we do not need a vote because we already know that it is unanimous unless the Liberals choose to make it otherwise. If they do that then they are neglecting their responsibility toward people in the fishing and the shipbuilding industries.
