| Message | Mr. Speaker I should reminde to our honourable NP colleagues that monopolies are forbidden from our country, and are actively broken up. However, we think that nationalization works in various sectors, such as public transport, manufacturing industries of fuels and energy and comunication. In substance every sectors that needs big employment of capitals. But alcoholic beverages it isn't one of them so we can't support this bill.

| Message | Mr. Speaker This is just another attempt by the Federal government for overreach in an area that it doesn't need to be nor would it even he the right Department to oversee it. Provincal Governments for a far better job regulating alcohol and not involving themselves in the sale then we could. We are firmly against.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We must reiterate the sentiments of our Conservative colleagues this is government overreach pure and simple. In addition this is an academic failure on the NPP's part because any cursory study in the field of economics will show that free market systems are always better equipped to provide for a positive outcome than the government is.
