Mr. Speaker, the real question is whether the NDP is interested in helping Canadian workers and families or simply in playing political games.
The leader of the NDP made it clear from the day of the election on that he had no intention of supporting the government or its budget no matter what was in it. For that reason, he did not read it and is now voting against all kinds of benefits that workers and families want. He should take off his blinders and start to be a little more positive for a change.
