Madam Speaker, I will respond to a number of the member's points. He stated that the NDP could not be all that bad in British Columbia. We will let the voters of British Columbia judge that within the next 12 months and we will see the results.
He talked about the best and brightest and referred to himself and a number of his colleagues and even some members in my party. We are here representing our constituents. There are many good Canadians who are very frustrated and do not want to leave the country but are forced to do so to seek other opportunities. I have had parents of children who graduated from university come into my office after taking their children to the airport in Victoria because they had accepted jobs in the United States.
