Mr. Speaker, it is true there are a lot of young people in my community, but there are a lot of young people throughout the entire country who are waiting on this Parliament to adopt important legislation that will positively affect them.
The reality is that we know it can happen, because it happened just a few days ago. The NDP was willing to set things aside to allow us to debate one thing for one day. When NDP members found a motion or an issue that was important enough to them, they allowed us to set aside the games that Conservatives have been playing in order to bring forward legislation that actually impacted all Canadians, not just young Canadians.
NDP members now need to come to terms with what is important enough to them. There is a lot of legislation out there right now that we would love to debate. Is the NDP basically saying, “Well, the GST was important, but other issues that other people care about are not important”?
It is time for the NDP to come to terms with the fact that this has gone on long enough, after 213 Conservative speakers speaking for 30 minutes, and now is the time to put this to rest so we can get back to working on behalf of Canadians.
