Madam Speaker, I wish the Reform Party were as concerned about poverty as it is concerned about the definitions of the deficit and the debt. Then maybe we would have a bit less poverty.
The member across the way mentioned that Canadians were proud.
It depends on where one is living. In the Atlantic provinces Canadians are certainly not proud of the Liberal government. Atlantic Canadians are very poor. They have been slashed, cut, abused and reused.
What does the member opposite think about the way the government has been working? Does she really agree with the poverty that has been caused by her government in the last few years?
