Mr. Speaker, the reality is this government has a focus on homelessness. It has a focus on poverty.
When we look at the Canadian economy, the potential for growth, the potential in the north, the potential in communities which have been at the margins of the Canadian economy for decades and decades and sometimes throughout our history, we are entering an era, thanks to the northern focused policies in particular of this government, where many, many Canadians are going to have opportunities they could not have dreamed of 10 or 20 years ago. They are going to have opportunities to participate in wealth creation, to benefit from the education system, to have jobs which are permanent and sustainable, to learn technologies, to start to participate in the global marketplace.
We are going to see the rising tide of the Canadian economy raising all boats, including the boats of those who have been less fortunate up to now.
