Mr. Speaker, one thing I did not hear the member talk about was jobs.
He talked about the middle class and said that “middle-class Canadians are working harder than ever”. He also talked about workplace pension plans to fall back on not being there as much as they should be. However, the government's policy is to cancel jobs. With its policies on energy, it has destroyed my area in southeast Saskatchewan by ruining good-paying, middle-class jobs that had sustainable pension plans. They are being wiped out because of the policies of the government.
How does the government sit there and talk about putting in a CPP program that will not support these people, because they have no jobs?
