First of all, we are supportive of the principle that the money is better sent to parents than, for example, to a government-run day care system. We think that principle is a good one, so we supported the introduction of the UCCB, but we also supported the change made by this government. We believe the means-testing reflects an important principle, which is that the money should go to the people who need it. Sending the same amount of money to a family making $20,000 and one making $2 million doesn't make any sense. It makes sense to us that the money is being tilted toward the people who need it more.
