Mr. Speaker, this bill is one I felt had weakened previous tobacco legislation.
I wondered if the member could make a comment on the fact that the government collects $2,000 million in taxes from cigarettes and has promised to spend $20 million per year on measures that would reduce tobacco input by our youth; $2,000 million taken in and $20 million per year promised for interdiction for our kids. This year it looks like it has only spent $6 million.
I wonder if the member could make a comment about that in terms of priorities.
