Frank Caputo Conservative
“Many hard-working people are struggling to get by. I want my colleague to say what the government should focus on instead to help them.”
“Mr. Speaker, it is always a pleasure to rise on behalf of the people of Kamloops—Thompson—Nicola. I thank my colleague for his speech. Like me, he is also from a family of Italian background, as are many other members of the House, although I cannot point to who is or is not here in referencing any particular member. One of the things I am so proud of is the hard work I saw from my family. They instilled that work ethic in me. I sense that the member has many hard-working people in his riding who are struggling to get by. Could the member comment on where he might shift priorities to in helping those hard-working people?”
