Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think my
colleagues have pretty well said it. I’ve heard remarks from both sides of this House, and I give credibility to a number of them. But we’re given a blunt target here, and we’re having to use a blunt instrument to deal with it. I prefer to think of my vote as voting for all of these things, many of which the Minister from Thebacha outlined. They’re some of the values that I represent. They’re represented in all of these tourism and parks improvements and renewal projects.
There are many of them here, but none of them come anywhere close to $1.5 million. They’re all very specific. What I’m seeing is clarity with them. Then I get to this parks renewal: $1.5 million with no clarity whatsoever. I’ve heard some of the things that are mentioned in it, and some of them I fully agree with, but again we’ve got a blunt instrument as the only instrument we have to bring to bear here. On that basis, I also will be supporting this motion.
