Mr. Speaker, since day one of taking office, our government was committed, and is committed, to making Canada's international assistance effective. We have not only made promises like the previous government did, but we are actually acting on aid effectiveness. We are making a real difference and that means making a difference in the lives of those who are living in poverty.
As the Auditor General has said, we need to be more focused. We need to have a set of priorities and we have to follow through on them. That is exactly what this government is doing.
