Another Statement from the Ontario Legislature
Some additional statements from the Hansard of the Ontario Legislature:
At http://hansardindex.ontla.on.ca/hansardeissue/37-2/l025.htm
Mr Beaubien: It's a pleasure to respond, especially to the member from Welland-Thorold when he's talking about this as a vicious attack on paramedics. I find it very disturbing that he would take this type of position, especially today when they were questioning about hospitals and the backup in emergency, and then all of a sudden they're not concerned about this vital service provided by these dedicated, well-trained individuals to make sure that there is no disruption in health care services, especially the emergency services in Ontario.
I wouldn't expect anything else when the member from Welland-Thorold says, "We'll do everything we possibly can to stop this piece of legislation and to make this government go through all the hoops and processes," because basically that is why you're still struggling with 8% and 9% of support in the province of Ontario. That's why there is a problem. That's why people in Ontario cannot see fit to support you people. With that type of support, no wonder you've got this type of attitude. It's totally irresponsible.
Mr Kormos: Click your heels and put on your arm band.
Mr Beaubien: That's right. That's the only way you can respond. The only way you can respond is to do a personal attack on somebody else. That's the only defence you have, because you cannot defend the position you've taken as an individual, as a member of Parliament and as a caucus member.
Interjection.
The Deputy Speaker: Order. The member for Niagara Centre will need to withdraw.
Mr Kormos: Withdrawn.
Mr Beaubien: When we make comments like the member just made, I find it very abhorrent. I look at it as a personal attack, and that's the only tactic that these people can use in order to try to put their point across.
Interjections.
Mr Kormos: You're a moron.
Mr Caplan: I find it passing strange to watch members of the government skate one way and the other --
Hon Frank Klees (Minister without Portfolio): On a point of order, Mr Speaker: I take personal affront to the member from Welland, who has just referred to a member of this place as a moron.
The Deputy Speaker: Order. He has withdrawn.
