Mr. Speaker, the contrary is quite the case.
If the hon. member had been more actively looking at the initiatives being taken over the past several months, she would know that we have been able to very successfully introduce a new program to aid students. Under this initiative 300,000 students will now have a new program of loans and grants for the first time, including new grants for those in the province of Quebec.
We have a new program where close to 25,000 young people will now be enrolled through various private sector initiatives in a series of apprenticeship programs. This will give them a real chance to move from school to work.
We have introduced a brand new system of delivery across the country. We will now be able to tell senior citizens that their applications for pensions can be processed in half a day rather than eight days and that they can get coverage in close to 700 centres.
If the hon. member had been more active in looking at the real things going on in the country rather than campaigning for separatism, she would have seen that we are in fact improving the lot of Canadians.
