Mr. Speaker, I would also like to congratulate you on your new role in the House.
I would like to ask the member about a national child care strategy. Of course, the member ably pointed out the great lack in this budget before us, whether it is housing, health care or first nations. One of the other glaring absences is a national child care strategy. Women and their families across this country have been working since the early 1970s to have a national child care strategy in place.
What would the member have liked to see with regard to quality, affordable, accessible and publicly funded child care?
