Mr. Chair, the minister is giving families no choice at all. The reason that poverty is up in Toronto is because there is no child care.
The Caledon Institute says that the Conservative plan discriminates against low income families. Indeed, the $100 per month is taxed and the less people make the more they are taxed.
Why does the minister insist on continuously punishing the more vulnerable in our society? They have no child care and they have discriminatory income support. Will the minister fight for children or not?
