“I support this economic update because it adds more help for lower-income Canadians. Over the last 10 years, our programs have already helped many people, including feeding 400,000 children across the country.”

Mr. Speaker, I spent eight years working in Seven Oaks hospital. That particular place is near and dear to my heart. I thought that the provincial government’s closing its emergency room was a terrible mistake. However, this spring update is in addition to the many initiatives over the last 10 years that have helped lower-income Canadians, such as the Canada child benefit and the school nutrition program, which is feeding 400,000 children across the country. We are simply adding to the supports for lower-income Canadians.
