Mr. Speaker, to continue on the same topic, it is clear that the Liberal Party is trailing in the polls, so it is desperate. It is going into debt to send people cheques right before an election. They might actually receive the cheques in the first week of the election campaign.
As some members might recall, Stephen Harper tried the same strategy in 2015, sending cheques to families in the summer right before an election was called, and we know how that turned out.
Does my hon. colleague think this is a proven electoral strategy that works?
