Mr. Speaker, I thank my good colleague from Foothills for that great speech on this very serious issue. I know that, in Barrie—Springwater—Oro-Medonte, there are a lot of people struggling to pay their bills, to heat, to eat and just to live, quite frankly. We are talking about a huge sum of money here, as $400 million has gone missing.
Could the hon. member explain to me how much better this money could have been spent in his riding, on good programs to help the people of Foothills?
