Mr. Speaker, I certainly hope that the parliamentary secretary is right in all of what he is saying about how this would affect where we find ourselves in 10 years with this particular museum.
What I fear is that if it is as good as, or even better than, what it is currently or would be 10 years down the road, why did the government fundamentally change some of the language surrounding what the government wants the museum to do? I do not understand where the genesis of this change comes from. Why would the Conservatives disagree with the fact that some of the greatest aspects of the Museum of Civilization will disappear?
I am not quite sure that everyone buys into this idea. To go back to what the professor at York University said this weekend, he said that it is almost as though we are delving into history knowing what the answers are already.
I am not going to say I totally disagree with him. I am just going to say that I hope 10 years down the road, he can prove me wrong.
