Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives seem to know the cost of everything but the value of nothing. They do not see value in investing in child care, which has not only reduced costs for families but also led to the largest increase in women's participation in the labour force in the history of this country. They do not seem to believe there is value in investing in social housing, in public housing and in affordable housing so that everyone in this country can have a roof over their head. They do not believe in the value of the Canada child benefit, which is ensuring that middle-class families in this country can put food on the table.
Before the member continues to sling mud and arrows on this side of the House, he should perhaps look inward and ask why he is not even allowed to advocate on behalf of his community. It is because his leader has said that is just not in order.
