Mr. Speaker, the hon. member from my province of New Brunswick, I realize, is very concerned about poverty and homelessness. I am a little surprised with his question.
I have lived with homelessness every day of my life for 30 years. I have been with these people every day of my life for 30 years and I want to assure everybody in Canada that I am in this for the long run and I am in this to work with Canadian people to find the right solutions so that every child in Canada will have a safe bed to sleep in.
