Adam van Koeverden Liberal
“Our school food program has served millions of meals to over a hundred thousand kids in Ontario and Alberta. It helps children. The Leader of the Opposition is wrong to call it just bureaucracy.”
“Mr. Speaker, let the record show that the Leader of the Opposition, the former member for Carleton, the member for Battle River—Crowfoot, just said that the more than 9.8 million meals served to over 130,000 kids in schools in Ontario is just bureaucracy. How about the 58,000 kids from Alberta who received school food? Is that just bureaucracy? He claims that he was raised by teachers, yet he does not want to accept that a school food program is helping kids. After 22 years in this place, one would think he would know that he works for Canadians. Canadian kids are included in that.”
