Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for her questions. I listened to previous negative comments from the other side of the House that talked about brain drain and now we hear the millennium scholarship mentioned.
I am talking here about a health care system now and for the future. Where was the support of the Reform Party for the millennium scholarship funds which are grants, the first grants to Canadian students in many decades? Where was the Reform Party's wholehearted support for the RESPs, the registered education saving plans, which again include grants for lower and middle income and high income people so they can support their children in education?
Where is Reform support, talking about brain drain, for the CFI, the Canada Foundation for Innovation, for the increases in the granting councils which I have just mentioned? Where is the support for the NRC? Where was the support for SchoolNet which has put all of our elementary schools and all high schools in Canada way ahead of the United States on the Internet?
That is the support our young people need. Our young people need the millennium scholarships. Here are hundreds of thousands of effective grants to get our young people into good schools, colleges and universities so that they can support the health care system that I was discussing and not the tax system they are discussing.
