Mr. Schmidt: I remember that when we were in government, one of our private members brought forward a bill that would have scrapped the conversion to daylight saving time, and unfortunately our Premier at the time was a coward and caved to the demands of the NHL and that crook Gary Bettman, who conspires with the rest of the NHL officials to prevent the Edmonton Oilers from winning the Stanley Cup or prevent any Canadian team from winning the Stanley Cup for the last 33 years. She caved to Gary Bettman and his cabal of NHL cronies because they expressed concern about late start times for NHL games if we were to stay on daylight saving time all year-round. That’s shameful. It’s shameful that she showed such a lack of courage, especially when one of the NHL teams, the Calgary Flames, never plays after the switch to daylight saving time anyway. So what’s the point? [interjections] Listen, you know, it’s not my fault the Calgary Flames suck. [interjections] Yeah.
