Mr. Speaker, if the member for Acadie--Bathurst had listened to my speech, he would have heard me making a reference to the workers of Algoma Steel. I did ask in my intervention as to what are the measures in the budget that would help them. I admitted the fact that in this budget the social security and the environmental security dimensions are missing. I expressed the hope that in the next budget, when the economic picture will be clearer to be interpreted, those two dimensions will be addressed.
