Mr. Speaker, I guess they are trying to say it is the provinces' fault that they left women out.
Let us talk about Pierre Trudeau, and no, I do not mean the foundation. In 1977, it was clear that the Canada Pension Plan Act penalized parents who chose to stay home to raise their children, so 40 years ago, his government changed the plan. Now the same debate has surfaced again, but this Liberal government is refusing to protect women.
Our question for the government is this: what would Pierre Trudeau have thought of this?
