Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I thank Members for their indulgence in this motion. What I’ve outlined before, I don’t need to say again. I’ve said it a number of times in this House. I’ve said it a number of times since I was elected, and in committees and meetings. I just don’t think the Regular Members on this side of the House are getting the attention and respect that we need and deserve.
We need to be at the table when strategic direction and strategic initiative money is being spent. To me, that’s one of the fundamental issues I have with this budget: it’s that we weren’t there. I think this motion speaks to that. We weren’t at the table. We want to be at the table. We want to work with Premier Roland. We want to work with Cabinet Ministers. We want to go forward together. Please let us have a seat at the table. That’s what this motion speaks to.
