Mr. Speaker, while we have to wait just over a week to learn the full contents of the budget, I am very happy to share today some facts that speak directly to affordability. First, a single mom with two kids will receive $13,600 from the Canada child benefit. Second, the average family in Saskatchewan will get almost $1,000 in a carbon price rebate. Third, seniors received $500 this summer and we are increasing OAS by 10%. Fourth, a student will save more than $3,000. Those are the facts.

Mr. Speaker, we will find out in due course what is in the budget. This last weekend, I was at the doors in my riding of Edmonton Centre. Moms and dads were thanking me and the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development for passing the child care agreement with Alberta, and just this week we have a deal in Ontario. Every province and every territory is now covered, with thousands of dollars back in the pockets of everyday Canadians. That is leadership. That is affordability.
