“The member did not answer my question about making life affordable. Our dental care program helps seniors who do not have much money. I want the member to answer: does he support government programs like that?”
“Mr. Speaker, the member did not answer the aspect of the question dealing with affordability by providing supports. Let me give a specific example about a senior on a fixed income, collecting $20,000 a year. The government has a program for dental services for that particular senior, and that makes the dental services more affordable for the senior. Does the member support that aspect of governance? Does he believe the government has a role in programs of that nature with respect to affordability?”
