Thank you for that.
Mr. Howlett, we hear so much about poverty, and we would all like to alleviate it, but everyone in this room will have a different definition of what poverty is. I guess that's what I struggle with. We've taken over 950,000 low-income Canadians right off the tax roll. They no longer pay taxes because of the tax reductions we've put in. We've doubled our aid to Africa.
You criticize us for not doing more, but we've consistently, as a government, flowed money to poorer nations. How much does it take to be effective, in your estimation, if the $5 billion that we've said we're going to continue to flow through ODA isn't enough for Canada's contribution?
