Mr. Speaker, I was asking a question about Stockwell Day earlier today. He is advocating a system where the federal government collects no taxes, none at all, and the provinces collect taxes and give a cheque once a year to the federal government. It was an idea rejected by the Americans in 1776. I wonder if our friend across the way endorses the vision of federalism in a country by Stockwell Day where the federal government collects no taxes, none at all, and the provinces do that and send a cheque to Ottawa.
It is rather bizarre. I know a lot of Reformers are hanging their heads in shame. I wonder if he is part of that group.
