Mr. Speaker, I think that my colleague's speech laid out our basic argument quite clearly.
As far as the numbers go, we disagree with representatives of the NDP and the government on the amount people this would affect. However, if there is one person held in high regard by all members of the House, that would be the Parliamentary Budget Officer. He said that a lot more people would be affected than the Liberal Party or the NDP seem to be letting on.
Can my colleague shed some light on that for us?
