Mr. Chair, I would like to respond to the hon. member. Unfortunately before she became a federal member eight or nine months ago, and I guess a while before that, the hon. member was with the provincial Tory government that made tremendous tax cuts. Yet poor Laurie and her family still had the problems.
Imagine tax cuts alone if they were the solution. We would have all the problems solved. We would not be discussing that issue.
What we have is an opportunity to create an early learning child care system that yes, is only the beginning but will allow young children and their families to have the opportunities that many other families in our country have if they have money.
This is a great opportunity for the future of extending the system at the provincial level depending on the regions and what they institute.
