Mr. Speaker, if the hon. member does not agree that the government should take that kind of money from the working people, why is it requesting in its motion to bring down EI premiums? Why does part of it not mention raising the benefits?
Why is the hon. member so concerned about agriculture when it is not in his party's motion today? We are approaching a budget. When will there be time to do it?
I speak to farmers in my riding. I agree that we must help. Farmers are people from rural areas. We can develop our country by helping people in rural areas stay in their homes and be able to work there and not have to go to big urban places. I have said that many times. That is why I support the people who work in agriculture. I could never eat a computer in the morning but I like my food. The NDP supports agriculture 150%.
