Mr. Speaker, we know the Conservative instinct is to cut. That is what the Conservative Party has always done. That is what the Conservative government did in years past. It cut veterans services, initiatives that supported the fight against child poverty, housing programs, and pensions. It cut everything it could because that would somehow lead to growth. Well, it did not. What has led to growth is investing in the middle class, and the people working hard to join it, and cutting taxes for the middle class while raising them for the wealthiest 1%, which the Conservatives voted against. Most recently, when we were delivering dental care for low-income Canadian kids, the Conservatives voted against it. We will continue to be there for Canadians.
