Mr. Speaker, I am trying to speak within the motion, and it is unfortunate that I have to speak the truth. I want to indicate to the public that there was a motion of censure already placed on Mr. Patterson on the cabinet. The reason for the motion being developed was due to a compromise position among the ordinary MLAs to bring forth the concerns publicly. Mr. Speaker, I have also stated that the goal of the Ordinary Members is to address the lack of confidence of Members towards the Ministers, but because of our system, which gives the Government Leader authority to address this concern, I agreed to place forth this motion in lieu of my previous motion.
Mr. Speaker, I realize the Government Leader stated she could not, or would not accept the Minister of Social Service's resignation because he did not do anything wrong. But I wonder, when a person does not do anything, how can one do anything wrong?
With these comments, Mr. Speaker, it is unfortunate if I have offended some. However, I will allow my other colleagues to speak to the motion. Thank you.
