Mr. Speaker, the member is certainly raising matters that my colleagues and I would like to see the government committing our budget dollars to.
Regrettably, we are in fact falling down on the commitments that we have made. So far, we have only committed a little over half of what we committed for international aid, for climate mitigation adaptation. We committed to having a 50-50 balance in our global assistance for adaptation and mitigation, and that most of that would go to grants, not to loans, and through public dollars, not through private dollars. However, Canada is taking the complete opposite direction.
We have just heard that the head of the OECD is deeply disappointed in Canada's falling far behind in our commitments to reduce greenhouse gases.
I wonder if the member could speak to what she sees in this budget that will in fact shift us toward what we committed to.
