Mr. Speaker, I can speak about support for the women's equality movement. That is what I can speak about.
I can also tell the hon. member that at this point in time the government is spending $10 billion on children in Canada. We are continuing to work on refining a children's agenda to deal with issues of child development, which is what the member is talking about in terms of early childhood education.
The government has implemented something very important known as gender based analysis in which every department, not just Status of Women Canada, has committed itself to looking at how it affects the issues of women's equality within its own department.
