Thank you, Chair.
In response to my colleague Mr. Kmiec, first of all, as all the world knows, climate change is a serious problem. All humanity is facing this problem. If we don't stand bravely, face this problem and bring an adequate solution to it, it means we are not preparing this country for us, for our children and for the children of our children—for generations to come. We would like to prepare Canada for our children and other generations, so that they have cleaner air and cleaner drinking water, with no floods, no forest fires, no tornadoes and no hurricanes. This is the way, the only way, we can fight climate change. Besides that, we all know that the federal government gives every province in Canada a big amount of money collected from carbon tax to go into the pockets of citizens. That's number one.
Number two, Mr. Chair, my colleague Mr. Kmiec last time said, when I said that Conservatives voted against the food program for students in schools, that this may jeopardize many businesses, which would be obliged to close because of that. I wouldn't be surprised, because the policy of Conservatives is to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. That's exactly what we are hearing and what we are experiencing at the moment over here. I'm surprised that a party can pretend they're working for the citizens of Canada and vote against this program. For nine out of 10 families, with this program, the parents can go to work without having the trouble of thinking about child care. Plus, how about those parents who cannot pay the fees for a private day care?
For me, there is no explanation. There is no way to understand that behaviour from a political party pretending they are looking out for the interests of Canadians.
I will end here, but I have many comments to make, Mr. Speaker. I believe this is clear from my side.
Thank you.
