Mr. Speaker, that is a very relevant question. I think it is distressing Canadians and that is why they are moving away in droves from the Conservative Party. They are sick of being taken advantage of, of being told that the government is going to have income splitting, for example, and then seeing the Conservatives argue among themselves.
Mr. Flaherty, the former finance minister, whom I respected greatly, near the end of his tenure said that this was bad idea. I think he started to listen to the experts. The Conservative Party would do well to do the same, realize it made a mistake in its platform, that it was not a good idea, that it will not go ahead with it, and apologize for it.
