Madam Speaker, I agree that integrity is quite hard to find, especially, as has already been pointed out in this debate this morning, considering the kinds of tax deductions given to others. We hear about companies being fined for breaking the law and the fines being tax deductible. We hear about major amounts of money leaving the country and thus escaping taxes.
People with disabilities, no matter whether they are life threatening or not, have extra expenses. We need to take that into consideration and acknowledge that. How many of us would want a disability payment of $960 a year maximum? Not one of us would. We would not take a minor disability if somebody paid us that much every year. To slap these people in the face by not allowing them these kinds of benefits shows a callous and uncaring group of people who worry more about money than people. Good government is about people, not about money.
