Madam Speaker, I am very pleased the member recognized that this is not a majority government. It is a minority government. In fact, the Liberals are responsible for driving this train and this rush to judgment on the HST bill.
For example, the Liberal caucus member, the Liberal finance critic, was quoted a while ago, when he talked about the HST. He said, “It is absolutely what the doctor ordered for the economy”. He was 100% in support. Whereas the former premier of B.C., now a Liberal MP, said, “It is absolutely horrendous and it is criminal on the part of the Conservative government to be pushing this policy in a time of deep economic recession”.
Clearly the Liberals are all over the map, as usual, on this issue. Would the member like to make further comments on this situation.
