Thank you, Madam Chair.
I will try to quickly summarize what we have heard today. If we want to make any headway in fighting poverty, it is up to the government to show that it is serious about it. This has to be a government priority. If it isn't one of the government's priorities, then, logically, no progress will be made and nothing will be done. From what I've heard here today, a government that invests in programs to reduce poverty will save money on health care. We all know how poverty affects families: children suffer from poor nutrition, there are alcohol, drug addiction and mental health problems, and that's only for starters. In the end, the entire system would benefit. That is what I wanted to say.
