I wondered if the colleague would care to comment on that because the member from Manitoba described his great achievements.</p>\n<p>I did make the point off the record that Steve Nash is only 6'3\u201d or 6'4\u201d and that he is the third smallest person ever to win the most valuable player award in the NBA.</p>\n<p>I would like to ask my colleague, first, how tall he is compared with his colleague here, and second, does he think there is hope for someone like me becoming the most valuable player in the National Basketball League?</p>",
