Madam Speaker, I listened with great interest to the hon. member's comments and I am impressed with his generosity.
I would like him to answer a question. I produced grain and livestock on my farm for years and years and I am producing more every year and it does not seem to keep up with the bills.
I am now at the stage at which I am old enough and fortunate enough to have some grandchildren. Every time I welcome one of them into this world I have to tell them they have $24,000 of debt. The next one has more debt.
How am I going to convince my grandchildren that I have spent their fortune already by being so generous. Can the member answer that for me? I have a great problem with spending somebody else's inheritance before I look after my own.
