Mr. Speaker, I clearly have indicated that I do not have a crystal ball but I do have a lot of information, like a lot of other Canadians. We know how to effectively use it in our negotiations and our deliberations with each other to come to some consensus in solving problems. We might be tempted at times to follow zealous input and a driving force from a special interest group. That happens when that hon. member gets up to speak on behalf of a great number of people who want transparency, accountability and, above all, democratic practices to be introduced in their communities.
