Mr. Speaker, what the minister still does not seem to realize is that Canadians are suffering because of his government's mismanagement.
For example, Peter McClure has been denied benefits even though he is dying of lung and rectal cancer. He was told his condition was not quite “severe and prolonged”. Then the tribunal refused to hear his appeal quickly, even though he has less than a year to live. Now he is spending his final days without income.
Where is the Conservative government's compassion for Canadians like Peter McClure?
