Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just want to go back to the point that I believe there is not another issue that has been brought up in this House that has shown as much consensus and that has built as much support. I do believe that. Many Members have indicated the number of letters they have received, and I really think that we should think more carefully and ignore the good evidence of positive results of a program. This is a really crucial time. It is the three-year mark when something has just taken flight; once it is dead it is not going to be revived. Mr. Speaker, may I ask the Minister of Finance to go back to the Cabinet and see if he can find in his heart and compassion out of the $1 billion budget and $50 million extra, to find some money? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
