Mr. Speaker, in order to get as many questions in as possible, since I know that there are people to my left who also want to ask some, and in order not to show disrespect for the hon. member, I shall be brief.
The situation fisher communities are in cannot be fixed by the hon. member with a snap of her fingers. My colleague for Lotbinière pointed out a minute ago the old TAGS program was created by just one public servant. It took less than four months and has led to four years of horror stories.
What people are asking us is to give them a slice of bread and butter, because that is precisely all the government's income support represents to them, to continue it for at least a year, and to use that year to create a real program which, this time, will reflect the reality of coastal communities. That is the answer I can give the hon. member for the moment.
