Kevin Lamoureux Liberal
“The member claimed that seniors in Canada are starving to death. That is false and extreme. I want the member to take back that statement or explain it.”
“Mr. Speaker, talk about extreme statements. We will have to review Hansard, but I believe the member said that seniors are now being starved to death. An hon. member: Oh, oh! Hon. Kevin Lamoureux: Mr. Speaker, he says yes. We have a Conservative leader who tours the country, as well as other Conservatives, saying that Canada is broken. Canadians are not stupid, and they are not going to believe the type of misinformation that the Conservatives pump out day after day. The extreme statement of saying that seniors are starving to death in Canada just highlights the type of irresponsible statements coming from the opposition today. I am wondering if the member will withdraw that particular comment, or at least provide clarity.”
