Mr. Speaker, obviously the hon. member has not talked to the people who are on social assistance. They want to have self-sufficiency. They want to have independence. They want to be able to earn an income for their families. They do not want to stay on dependency.
That is what this green paper is all about. It is about giving people real hope that they do not have to be dependent on a program and cheque, but once again can go to work.
