Mr. Speaker, the member talks about compassion. Where lies the compassion in a program that says they are going to cut equalization payments to the poorest provinces in this country? Where is the compassion in a program that says they are going to decimate the health care system? Where lies the compassion in a program that the third party has put forward in terms of cuts to senior citizens that would mean that the clawback currently at $53,000 would begin for senior citizens at $11,000?
In the House of Commons on February 21st, 1995. See this statement in context.
