Mr. Speaker, my question which is in pursuit of compassion is for the Minister of Human Resources Development.
After today's rather scary announcement the women of Canada are breathing a collective sigh of relief that the Reform Party is not the government. Women want social security reforms to be sensitive to their plight and to that of their children. I know the minister has met with many women's groups and I know he is very concerned about child poverty.
What measures has the minister taken to address the needs of Canadian women and their children?
