The House resumed consideration of the motion of Mr. Flaherty (Minister of Finance), seconded by Mr. Nicholson (Leader of the Government in the House of Commons), — That this House approve in general the budgetary policy of the government; (Ways and Means No. 1)
|
And of the amendment of Mr. McCallum (Markham—Unionville), seconded by Mr. Wilson (West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country), — That the motion be amended by deleting all the words after the word “That” and substituting the following:
|
“this House condemns the government for a budget which:
|
(a) abandons any federal leadership role in the development of social policy;
|
(b) ignores the Kyoto Protocol and the battle against climate change;
|
(c) destroys federal-provincial agreements which were creating high quality, universal, affordable and developmental childcare spaces;
|
(d) walks away from the Kelowna Accord with Canada’s aboriginal people and all provinces and territories;
|
(e) fails to deal with student access to post secondary education, including the high cost of tuition, or to provide adequate support for science and technology;
|
(f) raises the income tax rate for all Canadian taxpayers; and
|
(g) eliminates the policies of fiscal responsibility which have fostered Canada’s robust economy for over a decade.”;
|
And of the subamendment of Ms. Wasylycia-Leis (Winnipeg North), seconded by Mr. Stoffer (Sackville—Eastern Shore), — That the amendment be amended by adding after the words “for over a decade” the following:
|
“And that the House further condemns this government for the continuation of the last governments’ obsession with corporate tax reductions as opposed to spending to help working families; specifically condemning the higher priority given to physical infrastructure while ignoring direct financial assistance for students at our post secondary institutions, the lack of spending to reform our inadequate employment insurance system, and the on-going lack of commitment to create not-for-profit childcare spaces with multi-year funding.”.
|
The debate continued.
|
Pursuant to Order made Thursday, May 4, 2006, the House proceeded to the taking of the deferred recorded division on the motion of Ms. Bennett (St. Paul's), seconded by Mr. Silva (Davenport), — That the House recognize that an effective, Canada-wide early learning and child care system requires both continued vigorous effort to provide supports for family incomes and proactive intergovernmental activity to create a sufficient number of high quality, universally accessible, affordable and developmental child care spaces to meet the broad range of needs of Canadian children;
|
that the House observe that the present government has made, in both these tasks, significantly less progress than its predecessor, which had provided income support programs for families with children totalling more than $10 billion per year and had negotiated child-care space-creating agreements with all provinces valued at at least an additional $1 billion per year; and,
|
therefore, that the House urge the government to increase substantially its activities in this regard in order to provide Canadian families with the early learning and child care facilities that they need and deserve.
|
The question was put on the motion and it was negatived on the following division:
