Mr. Speaker, the world has changed. This is a new budget. The hon. member talked a bit about why we should look at productivity. Yes, Canada has lagged in productivity. What do we do when we want to increase productivity? We train people, we skill people, we build industries and we help industry to expand to create jobs. That is what productivity is about. We make sure that women can join the workforce. We make sure that the workforce is a diverse one. We help people to become skilled. That is what productivity is about, and this budget is addressing that productivity lag.
