Mr. Speaker, I would certainly like to help them see the light, but I do not know if it is possible.
For less than $1 per Canadian per year, I think we are getting the best investment possible for our money, less than the cost of a chocolate bar, in order to ensure social peace, social cohesion and a country of prosperity that includes all Canadians.
I suggest to my colleague, who is a very concerned and considerate member representing a wonderful riding on the tip of Quebec between the two borders, that the amount of money we invest and the efforts that are deployed jointly by many groups in this country puts us at the forefront of fighting bigotry, racism and prejudice that is still found in the minds and hearts of many Canadians, contrary to certain thoughts expressed elsewhere in this House.
