A brief end-of-session debate where members wished each other well for the summer break and thanked staff. The Liberal member praised the government's summer jobs program. No real discussion of any substantial issues.
“I want to cheer for a program that spends money in my riding. 600 jobs created. See, the government spends money and it helps young people. We need to spend money so young people can network.
