Mr. Speaker, I have a great deal of respect for my colleague.
I am troubled by the government's decision to limit this debate. There are clearly a number of problems with the bill, particularly with regard to the fact that people with disabilities and young women are being excluded from the enhancement. This could have a significant impact, particularly for women who depend on the drop-out provision when they leave the labour force to raise their children. I find that odd since the Prime Minister claims that his is a feminist government.
My question is simple. How can a government that claims to be feminist move forward with a bill that undermines the retirement of young women in Canada?
