Thank you.
Yes, I think it's very important to have those principles. I don't know exactly which wording we should put in there, but of course we already know about all the financial stress that's happening in communities and also with our service system. Already in the near future we will be seeing more financial problems if the government doesn't engage itself to properly fund this piece of legislation. In the end, what's the good of having this piece of legislation if we haven't provided for our people?
I think it's very important that we mention it in this legislation to make sure that it's clear and engages the federal government to participate in taking care of our children. I want to remind everybody here that our children will be the ones who are going to be protecting Canada later. They have to feel that they belong here.
As I said earlier, they have to feel a sense of stewardship of this country. It doesn't matter which party you come from; that's what we have to think about. We have to think 50 years ahead, not only four years ahead but 50 and 100 years ahead. We need to put the money in today to make sure that our children feel good and that we overcome all those different traumas that came behind us. That's all we need.
