Mr. Speaker, we know that essential products that are shipped to the north are incredibly expensive.
In response to some of the Pad Parties that have been held across Ontario, I purchased some feminine hygiene products and took them to my local shelter and they were horrendously expensive. If they are horrendously expensive in southern Ontario, I cannot imagine how inaccessible they would be in the north.
We come back to the dignity of women. Women deserve to have equity and these products.
