Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Sarnia—Lambton for her question. I congratulate her on her work in the House and her tireless commitment. She is making a difference and she has my utmost respect.
We must indeed pay attention to revenue. We must have tax fairness and tax justice. We need to be very careful with government spending. Every time the government spends a dollar, it must remember that it comes out of the taxpayers' pockets or from their collective debt, and so out of the pockets of tomorrow's taxpayers. That is why we must always ensure that funds are used efficiently and effectively.
In a time of crisis, if there is one lesson the economy has taught us, it is that implementing stimulus programs, for example, an income support program for those who lost their income during the pandemic, is the least of all evils.
We are in favour of such programs, but they must be properly implemented. That money should absolutely not be misappropriated by the cronies at We Charity. Our job as legislators is to keep an eye on the government to make sure it does not commit this type of reprehensible blunder.
