You are absolutely right. If we invest in helping people become active members of society, we will end up saving money. Clearly, the government should not keep making the same kinds of decisions it is making now, in other words, spending billions of dollars on warplanes and helicopters. Those are not measures that help Canadians remain active members of society. We do not need that in Canada. Invest in Canadians, instead of votes. That is crucial.
I commend people like Ms. Bonsant, who are more concerned about the welfare of people than votes. Remember that lesson. This is a perfect example of a member of Parliament who cares about society.
