Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Regina—Lewvan for his excellent speech.
I would like him to comment further on what he said at the beginning of his speech about how long it takes for a CEO to earn as much money as an average employee in the same company.
We hear a lot about the day when Canadians have earned enough to cover their taxes. If I remember correctly, that is usually in July or August. Too little is being said about this other extremely important indicator. I think it has gotten worse over the years. In the 1970s, the gap between CEO pay and worker pay was much smaller.
I would like to give my colleague an opportunity to talk more about something that I think is important, even though most Canadians are unaware of it.
