Mr. Speaker, the hon. member gave a very good speech. The NDP is always very good at bringing forward interesting ideas, and I like hearing about them.

However, I know that the Liberals have reached a good balance when the Conservatives say we have gone way too far and the NDP say we are not going far enough. It is the perfect happy medium, yet again.

Would the member like to comment on that?

Monsieur le Président, la députée a prononcé une excellente allocution. Les néo-démocrates ont toujours des idées intéressantes à présenter, et j'aime bien les entendre.

Cependant, je sais que les libéraux sont parvenus à un bon équilibre quand les conservateurs disent que nous sommes allés beaucoup trop loin et les néo-démocrates affirment que nous n'allons pas assez loin. Encore une fois, il faut garder en tout un juste milieu.

La députée voudrait-elle dire quelque chose à ce sujet?
