Mr. Speaker, the reality is that when people go to their local service counter to get help, they are asked to call Service Canada instead, but the phone lines are jammed already. Now they are cutting staff even further. Seniors and unemployed Canadians are being put on hold and not getting even the most basic service from their government.
Why will the Minister of Human Resources not take responsibility for the mess that she created and fix her department so that Canadians can get the help they need?
