Madam Speaker, just saying something is progressive does not make it so.
The reality is that we are the progressive opposition, and we are here to remind the government that middle class does not start at $45,000 a year. There are people in my riding who are surviving every single day on less than $20,000. They are fighting every single day to survive.
It is very disrespectful to not look at their needs and make sure we are there for them when they need us. The government must do better.
