Mr. Speaker, I came up yesterday with great anticipation that we would get some work done this week in the House of Commons for Canadians. Obviously, I am very disappointed. I am here to work on behalf of my constituents of Saint John—Rothesay. I am here to continue to advocate for stuff like our wonderful housing programs, our child care benefits, so on and so forth. However, we cannot get that work done for Canadians.
My first question for the member opposite is whether he is ready to get to work on behalf of Canadians. Second, we know that the Leader of the Opposition will not get a security clearance. Could the member talk to his leader and please encourage him to get that security clearance? More and more Canadians week in, week out are wondering what is up with the Leader of the Opposition.
