Thank you, and thank you, Senator.
I'm curious, first of all, to comment on my colleague Mr. Young's compassionate dissertation on homelessness in Toronto. I'd like to thank him for that concern. I certainly hope he'll be supporting our national housing strategy when it comes up for a vote in the House of Commons. That would be an excellent start.
Senator, you seem to suggest in your comments that philanthropy replaces the government's obligation, or that if the government backs away on social spending, volunteers should therefore fill the breach.
I'm curious. Could you flesh out what you're talking about there?
