While I do that, Mr. Speaker, I feel rather unfortunate for the hon. member because he represents that particular party down there in the corner. He talked about how great it is. I am looking at vote No. 3 which will come up tonight. The President of the Treasury Board wants to spend $905 million on Fisheries and Oceans. What does his party want to do? It wants to cut $822 million out of that budget and leave less than $100 million.
We know that the fishing industry in his part of the country is experiencing serious problems. While we do not always agree and sometimes seldom agree with what the government proposes, I just cannot for the life of me understand why that party thinks that cutting $800 million out of the fishing industry's support would be beneficial to St. John's West.
