| Message | Mr. Speaker, There's little to achieve here in deliberations, there will be no middle ground; this is the bare minimum we can do. Let's take this to a vote and get this over with. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The National Front's Front on negotiations won't get him anywhere. There are some aspects of this legislation that the Democratic Party could support, but has to vote no because of the proposals that the Democratic Party won't vote for. Jordan Eldridge, MP, Democratic Party Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We remain open on negotiation, when there's room to negotiate. The workers and people, are the foundation of our nation, not us. The engine works the car not the steering wheel. It's time we recognize this, we're not asking for tax exoneration for the people, but a share of what's theirs. |
