Mr. Speaker, I am very glad to see that the opposition will be working with us to improve the lot of children in Canada. This is a very important issue and I thank the member very much.
We were very successful last week at the ministerial council with the provinces. We identified child poverty as something we really wanted to work on. We are looking into an integrated child benefit. That was a prominent issue on all of our agendas. We were quite pleased to see that the provinces welcomed that initiative. They could see that we could work in a complementary fashion with them.
