Mr. Speaker, we know that the Reform Party is only interested in money. What Reformers fail to appreciate is that these programs are focused on people. That is why working in partnership with private interests, with communities, we are creating jobs for individuals.
Members of the party over there say they would like to kill these programs, but yet, as I pointed out, individual members, the member for Skeena, the member for Nanaimo—Cowichan and even the member for Kootenay—Columbia, keep calling my office, saying “Can't you please hurry and approve the application?”
