The House resumed the Adjourned Debate on the Proposed Motion of Ms. Allan:

For an Address to His Honour the Lieutenant Governor in answer to His Speech at the Opening of the Session.

And on the Proposed Amendment of Mr. Filmon:

THAT the Motion be amended by adding to it after the word "Manitoba" the following words:

BUT this House regrets that this government has failed to meet the goals and needs of Manitobans by its

(a) failure to provide a plan or vision for the Province of Manitoba to ensure we continue to enjoy the economic successes of the last decade; and

(b) failure to commit to fiscal responsibility by not committing to balance the budget this year and every year as promised in the recent provincial election; and

(c) failure to commit to maintaining all provisions of the toughest balanced budget legislation in Canada; and

 

(d) failure to provide any meaningful measures to maintain economic growth and reduce taxes; and

(e) failure to provide a jobs strategy so that Manitoba continues to lead the country in job growth and low unemployment; and

(f) failure to help people help themselves by proclaiming workfare legislation that would assist welfare recipients to find jobs;

AND HAS THEREBY lost the trust and confidence of the people of Manitoba and this House.

And the debate continuing on the amendment,

And Mr. Penner (Steinbach), Ms. Korzeniowski, Messrs. Loewen, Santos, Cummings and Rondeau having spoken,

And Hon. Mr. Gerrard speaking at 6:00 p.m.,

The debate was allowed to remain in his name.

______________________________

The House then adjourned at 5:56 p.m. until 10:00 a.m. Friday, December 3, 1999.

Hon. George Hickes,

Speaker.
