Madam Speaker, listening to the member always gives us a great opportunity to hear a crisp articulation of the Conservative world view.
There is certainly room for criticism of the government's response to the pandemic, but I think it is a fiction to pretend that somehow a Conservative government could have stopped the virus from coming into Canada. When we look around the world, this is indeed a global pandemic. There have been severe economic consequences right across the global.
What I would like to hear, which I have not heard today, is the real answer from the Conservatives on what plan they have for income support for Canadians. Given the situation we find ourselves in now, no matter how we got here, what is their plan, going forward, to support Canadians who would like to work but cannot go back to work because the jobs do not exist and who still need to put a roof over their heads?
The member gave a great lecture on the consequences of public debt. Perhaps he would like to opine on the consequences of millions of individual bankruptcies in Canada and the economic effect that would have.
