Mr. Speaker, I don’t know if I’m making my point clearly here. The fact is I don’t think it’s prudent or responsible for the government to be funding a third party proposal at $30,000 to bring somebody in to do two training programs on how to use car seats if we can find resources from within.
What I’m telling the Member is that we have the entire health promotion section that works on injury prevention and how to use helmets safely. We rent out vests so as to prevent boating accidents, we distribute helmets for safe practices, and we do distribute car seats.
I think it’s not correct to say: why aren’t you funding this money? What I’m saying is that it is part of the mandate of the department. We work on safety throughout the year. I am working with the
department to see, if there’s a need for this, how we can do this within. I believe we can do that without spending $30,000, which, I’m sure the Member would appreciate, is better fiscal management.
