Madam Speaker, I appreciate the speech given by my colleague from just across the border in Saskatchewan.
One of the challenges we have seen throughout the last six years of Liberal governments is emphasized in the budget, the growing divide between urban and rural Canadians. Certainly a lot of the promises made in this budget seem to just outright ignore rural and remote Canada, whether that be rural areas like those that the hon. member and I represent or more remote areas like in Canada's north.
I am wondering if the member would comment on some of the ways that this budget fails to address the challenges faced by rural and remote Canada.
