Mr. Speaker, it is good to see you back in the Chair after an extended absence.
Pursuant to Standing Order 36, I have two petitions to present today. The first comes from Wetaskiwin, Alberta.
The petitioners would like to draw to the attention of the House that managing the family home and caring for preschool children is an honourable profession which has not been recognized for its value to our society. The petitioners therefore pray and call upon Parliament to pursue initiatives to eliminate tax discrimination against families who choose to provide care in the home for preschool children, the chronically ill, the aged or the disabled.
