Mr. Speaker, I have a question for my hon. colleague from Windsor—Tecumseh.
International Women's Day is coming up in March. Yet this budget directly attacks pay equity, while women today already earn only about 71¢ for every dollar earned by a man.
What is more, we heard one of our colleagues say today that the NDP is not prepared to stand up for Canadians. But that is precisely what we do in the NDP: we stand up for what Canadians are really asking for.
Can my colleague comment on the impact this budget will have on pay equity for women?
