Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to hear what the hon. colleague across the way has had to say. It gives me an opportunity to repeat what I said. He did not really get the intent of my motion. He refers to intentions but this government needs more than intentions; it needs to take action.
He speaks of measures to help seniors but those are measures for people with incomes. Tax credits only affect people who pay income tax. The measures in my motion are to help people living with minimum incomes that do not even bring them up to the poverty line. I saw none of those measures in the budget presented by the Conservatives.
