Madam Speaker, hindsight is a wonderful thing; however, I do think that there was some evidence last spring that there was something pretty serious coming at us, and I would like to have seen more information of a preventative and informative nature being available to the public.
I do not think it is too late for us to move on this now. The fact that we have agreed to an emergency debate sets the tone that we would like to see a real change in direction. Certainly, I called for that in my comments and I hope that the government would see fit to respond.
