I support the motion.
My wife is a teacher. Over some 20 years, she's seen many kids come to school without a proper meal. Many of these kids are in families that are living in their own homes, but they're living such busy lives that they don't find the time for their children.
It was found, in many of the programs that were put out, that students were much better at learning and their education marks were much stronger if they had the opportunity to have a meal. It created a social gathering, and it also created an environment in which kids weren't stigmatized if they didn't have the resources to do that.
I think this motion is a good motion. Indeed, one of my constituents, Mr. Frank Stronach, founder of the Magna corporation, has established a foundation called the GUHAH Foundation—which is “grow up healthy and happy”—as a legacy project. It's not just us, but the general communities that are concerned about kids being properly fed and getting healthy food in schools.
I would support this motion.
