Mr. Speaker, let us be very clear. The Conservatives' budget did not help the 880,000 Canadians using food banks. That is what we voted against on this side of the House.
Conservative cuts in EI did not help anyone either. Nor did a budget bill that raids vacation pay and health insurance.
Why will the government not act to help the hundreds of thousands of Canadians living in poverty? Why are these Canadians being left behind by the government?
