Mr. Speaker, we understand the scene: personal attacks, character assassination and misinformation.
It is interesting. The member posed the previous question, with regard to veterans. The Conservatives try to give the impression that the government is cutting back $4 billion. What they do not tell us is that this is $4 billion in savings, because we used to pay $8 a gram for medical marijuana but it is now being reduced to $6 a gram. Only the Conservatives would argue that we should continue to pay more than what the market is providing for.
That is where the $4 billion is, but the Conservatives try to give the impression that we are cutting back on veterans. The Conservatives know this is not true. A real cut was when their leader cut and closed nine Veterans Affairs offices across Canada.
