Mr. Speaker, the member for Elmwood—Transcona has asked a legitimate question.
It would have been good to have the current government engaged in this debate. Perhaps if it were engaged in this debate we could get some clarification.
The Conservatives make an investment in building more jails, but when they advertise that, it is social housing in their eyes. It would be good to have them stand and give an explanation on these various points, but I guess they have decided not to.
Still, the opportunity exists here today for us to engage in this. We can highlight those points and bring them to Canadians. I think Canadians appreciate the opportunity to be enlightened.
