Mr. Speaker, frankly, it pains me to see, in what is supposed to be a functioning democracy, a government that is in complete and utter collapse today. It is no secret that many in the House have lost confidence in the government. In fact, Canadians have lost confidence in the government. The only ones who seem to have not lost confidence in the government are its NDP coalition partners. The leader of the NDP holding off to get his pension is probably one of the most contemptible things I have seen in this country in a long time.
I want the hon. member's comments on the fact that we need an election now. We need to return to some sense of normalcy, decency and morality in this country, which a common-sense Conservative government could do.
