Mr. Speaker, since the hon. member opposite has said that it is a matter of political will I have another question.
It seems to be a fundamental right of parents to make choices with respect to how and where their children are educated. If they were not taxpayers I suppose we could simply say it was public policy, public money, and not their money.
Essentially 100% of these parents are also taxpayers. They pay into the education pot. Why can they not take money from the education pot to which they have contributed and make a free choice on how their children are educated?
Does the member suppose the Liberal Party will ever demonstrate the political will to grant this most fundamental human freedom?
