Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member for raising the issue of the closure of Status of Women offices. I have one of the largest ridings in Canada and I do not have an office within 200 miles. The Conservative government closed that office in its cuts to women's issues.
The member used the word hypocritical quite a few times. Her leader supported the Conservatives in the last election and that is the reason why the Conservative government was elected. It is the height of hypocrisy to say that the NDP wants to support the Conservative government that put in all these cuts and then blame somebody else. The NDP can go back and find credit where it wants. It is ridiculous in this House to blame us for the issues when the NDP in fact supported the Conservative government and continue to do so to this day. How long are those members going to do it with their leader?
