Mr. Speaker, it is the minister who is muddled.
Thousands of Canadians are worried about their jobs, their family livelihoods, their savings and pensions, and the government could help immediately but it refuses.
It has $4 billion available right now. No other approval, no delay, is necessary.
That money could be invested today to help livestock producers, for example, or forestry workers, but the Conservatives simply want to use it to hide their humongous deficit.
Why will they not help vulnerable Canadians right now?
