Madam Speaker, in my riding, the food bank is running out of food regularly, and I know that is happening across the country because people can simply not afford to eat. Twenty-five per cent of children are going hungry. One in five family members are eating less because they cannot afford to eat. Scurvy has returned.
That $400 million would do a lot to feed the hungry here in Canada. We are spending money overseas like drunken sailors, but here in Canada, we have people who are suffering, and that money could have gone to them.
