Madam Speaker, I am hoping to be able to address the motion as liberally as both the mover and the seconder have, in terms of being all over the place regarding the government agenda and some of the things the Conservative Party of Canada would like to be able to do.
We just finished having a confidence vote. The Conservatives, in their great hunger for power, will do whatever it takes, period, end of story, to get what they want, not necessarily what Canadians want but what the leadership of the Conservative Party wants. It is unfortunate, because there is a substantial cost to the behaviour we are witnessing day in and day out from the Conservative Party. Its single focus is nothing more than to cause an election.
Fortunately, other political entities in the House of Commons recognize we are not here to serve the Conservative Party. We are here to serve and provide for Canadians in all regions of our country. In the last election, all parties were given a mandate, and that mandate was to work co-operatively in looking for ways to provide the supports that Canadians want and expect, not only the government of the day, the Liberals, but also the New Democrats, members of the Bloc and, in fact, Conservative members of the House of Commons.
The Conservative Party has been consistent since day one after the last federal election. One only needs to look at the actions Conservatives have taken. It was greatly amplified over the summer, to the degree that they are even getting a little giddy, I would suggest. Unfortunately, adding to that giddiness, some serious issues are flowing out of the leader of the Conservative Party's office, and that really concerns a lot of Canadians.
We have witnessed a Conservative Party shift to the extreme right. We have even seen Progressive Conservative prime ministers be exceptionally critical of the new Reform-Conservative party we see today.
