Mr. Speaker, the member opposite said that members on this side have a tendency to forget the past. I can tell you that the past is an indication of what the future holds in store and that we have not forgotten the past. We used to hear a lot about the POWA, but today we do not hear about it anymore.
In the member's speech, which looked back on the past, I did not hear of any assistance for workers who lost their job or who are about to lose their job due to this problem in the textile industry. My question is clear and simple. In view of these jobs being lost, what measures will the government put in place to help these workers, especially those who are 55 and older?
