Madam Speaker, I enjoyed the speech given by my colleague, who works very hard and obviously has command of the issues, including this one. Could the member elaborate on the points raised relating to the economy? He said that not only is this good social policy, but it makes very good economic sense.

Madam Speaker, I want to thank member, who does hard work in the House, for his very important question. When we talk about the economic value this could add to Canada, the program would give back to Canadians in many ways. Women would be able to re-enter the workforce. Our economy would benefit from the added value. Our GDP would go up. We will see that the program pays for itself in terms of economic returns to Canada. I am in full support of this program. I know a lot of Canadians in my riding are in full support of this program.

Madam Speaker, I am very happy to serve on the executive of the IMF-World Bank parliamentary network with my colleague. As he can imagine, the economy is always on our minds, whether locally, domestically or globally; I am glad he is thinking like that. I think that the government and the minister should think like that as well. We should be thinking about everyone prospering within Canada, not just a subset that works for the government in this program.
