| Message | We have often said that there are many issues that we can agree with the liberals on. If we are not in exact tandem we, at least, are willing to compromise on a majority of issues. This is one of those issues. We are pleased to support this legislation and thank and applaud all those who have helped to make it possible. -Roger Evars, COM Party Leader |
