Mr. Speaker, of course we understand that the NDP has absolutely no respect for the Canadian Constitution and it actually has no respect for the Canadian taxpayer.
If they had respect for the Canadian taxpayer, the New Democrats would be able to look at themselves and say that they have used $2.7 million of taxpayer resources inappropriately, and they would pay it back. However, they are refusing to do that to the point where they are going to have to go to court. Sixty-eight of them will be squeezed into the defendant's box all summer explaining to their constituents why they refuse to pay them back the money they owe them.
