Mr. Ed Holder (London West, CPC): Mr. Speaker, it is now the end of a dynamic session of Parliament and throughout we have had some intense dialogue, frankly, some more colourful than others. My Cape Breton mother used to say about politics: “After it's all said and done, there's a lot more said than done”.

    However, that is not the case during this session of Parliament, so I would appreciate as we depart, if the government House leader would remind us all of some of the key outcomes achieved during this sitting of Parliament.

    Hon. Peter Van Loan (Leader of the Government in the House of Commons, CPC): Mr. Speaker, our government made commitments to Canadians. We have an obligation to deliver on those commitments, to focus on economic growth and to focus on job creation, and tackling crime. Canadians expect us to do our jobs here and make decisions on the issues before us. That is exactly what we have done.

    We have passed important economic measures in the keeping Canada's economy and jobs growing act. We also have passed a bill to move every province closer to the principle of representation by population. Finally, we have given western Canadian grain farmers the freedom they have longed for, for so long. Canadians can count on our government to make decisions, move forward and get things done.
