It is daunting to make a meaningful contribution to a debate on such a complex issue in four minutes. What is important about this evening's debate is that Senator Norris has done us a service by providing a focus for the debate. Already I can see parameters put down by two different points of view. Some might say the Senator put his head on the block. On the Order of Business this morning he might have feared that it might be knocked off. However, even if his head were knocked off, I believe he would continue to make a very good case.
