Mr. Speaker, the approach we took as Conservatives when we were in government was that our foreign aid should be something that brings Canadians together, something all Canadians could agree was a good idea and that was not divisive for Canadians. I think we were successful in promoting programs, like the maternal and child health program, which provided basic access to medicines and health support for people who needed it around the world.
Let us focus on those things that bring Canadians together, that bring the world together. That should be our priority, and that should be where we invest our resources, because there is so much need in that area in terms of basic medicine and basic nutrition. Why would we not focus on those kinds of things?
