Mr. Speaker, I had not intended to give a Caesar-like speech. We are not burying the member. I am tempted, of course, as ever, to praise him because we are friends.
I do not think the hon. member for Battle River—Crowfoot will be gone long from this place, and I do not know if the official residence of Stornoway is now found within the borders of Battle River—Crowfoot, but I am sure that all things will be revealed. I hope the member for Battle River—Crowfoot will be back here.
I want to ask him a question, very briefly, because it is my first time taking the floor today. The hon. member for Calgary Centre pointed out how many Conservative ideas are in this Speech from the Throne. I think it could have been a Speech from the Throne from a Conservative government. I wonder if the member for Battle River—Crowfoot will be tempted to vote for it.
