Mr. Speaker, it never ceases to amaze me that whenever we bring forward real, tangible solutions that Canadians and stakeholder groups are bringing forward to us, the member opposite hurls insults about the last Conservative government from 10 years ago. Canadians want us to be serious. They want us to act like adults and have a real conversation about this crisis within the country. They do not want to look in the rear-view mirror; they want to look forward. They believe we can solve this issue, and I do not want to play partisan politics with the member opposite. I would rather have an adult conversation and provide real solutions for Canadians, because that is what they expect of us.
