I am answering the question. The member does not like the answer. We start by cutting the $2 billion for fishermen and plant workers. That is what the member wants. Then we would cut all unemployment insurance payments in total so there would be no more unemployment insurance plan. Then we would begin to cut medicare and do away with medicare as a universally accessible plan and ensure that people would pay their own way. The member is nodding his head yes. When done with that we would then cut out all regional development funding so that those who lived in areas of highest unemployment would be left to their own resources. At the end of the day we would simply take the keys to Parliament and the notion of parliamentary responsible government and we would turn them over to Walmart.
The Parliament of Canada is not McDonald's. It is not Walmart. It is up to government to use the tools and the resources of the nation to give direction and shape to the country. We do not give shape to the country by abandoning public policy to public accountants. We will not do it.
