Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express a real concern that I have about the current Executive Council's version of consensus government. I find it unbecoming that people who are in a leadership role should be asking ordinary Members to propose changes to government which are really only, at this point in time, clearly in the government's interest. If you are an ordinary Member, you have your own agenda of the things you want to do, and if it is the wish of the government to get rid of the Housing Corporation's board, they should go ahead and do it. If they are convinced that is the thing to do and they can save money, and so on, that is the thing that you can do and you have the authority to do it because you are the government. If you want to get rid of the Denendeh Conservation Board because you think it is no good and it has no purpose, you should have the courage of your convictions to go ahead and do it and not ask ordinary Members to take the heat for things that you want to do yourself.

I can go on at great lengths on all the things that the government would like to do. It is a strange version of consensus government if the involvement that we are going to have is simply to be an instrument of somebody else's policy. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
