Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the member opposite commenting on my capability. That is much appreciated.
When we talk about what Canada is, it is very different from the Conservatives' vision of Canada. The Conservatives talk about the Canada that was, not the Canada that could be. On this side of the House, we talk about the Canada that could be, the Canada that can be and the Canada that will be. It is a Canada that is prosperous and dynamic, that looks at differences as strength, that invests in the economy of the future, that takes the steps required to ensure that Canadians are trained for that and that does not turn its back on Canadians in their moment of need. We do not say that when Canadians are in need, we are going to turn our back on them and say good luck. We believe in investing in Canadians.
