It is important that everyone understands that the hon. member for Portage\u2014Lisgar defeated Brian Pallister in the last election. The member for Brandon\u2014Souris should be the one to resign in the event that Mr. Pallister wins leadership, because the member for Portage\u2014Lisgar, the Reform member, would again win in a byelection because he did win by 1,500 votes over the Conservative candidate. Unless the Conservative candidate wants to come back for a second defeat, so be it.</p>",
