| Message | Mr. Speaker, Victoria Shadowlight is talking nonsense. I advise other MPs to ignore her. Like the other idiots in her party, she doesn't know what she is saying.

| Message | Mr. Speaker. I was only doing a comparaison. The government is at the mercy of market right now, to undertake highway construction, we do not oppose private firm, we just believe that the government should not be at the mercy of a free market, Local government should have the last word on project that only affect local highway.
