Mr. Speaker, Canadians have been clear. They want good jobs, a healthy environment and a strong economy. Last week the Minister of Environment and Climate Change unveiled the emissions reduction plan, outlining the next steps toward achieving these priorities for all. Can the Minister of Environment and Climate Change tell us the objectives of this plan?

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member for his speech. He talked about the Treasury Board and how the Treasury Board is going to have the responsibility over all the departments to make sure they are complying with the official languages and that they will be the ones with the plans. How do we make sure that the Treasury Board, which has a lot of different priorities, keeps this as a priority? Also, what will the Minister of Official Languages be doing then?

Madam Speaker, I will turn to an article from David Akin. It says: “Canadians are in many parts of this country, really, really feeling the pressure, especially people with more precarious employment, women, people with kids at home—people who are under real pressure as a result of what they see as an unplanned, rising cost of living that they’re now having to manage,”...“And they’re looking to this budget for a signal from the government that they got it and that they’ve got some ideas about how to deal with it.” ...A majority—53 per cent—listed “help with the soaring cost of every day needs due to inflation” as one of their three top priorities. That was followed with 45 per cent listing “lowering taxes” as a top priority and 40 per cent telling the pollster that “greater investments in healthcare” ought to be a priority. It concludes that the previous issues of idealistictness “now have a lower priority according to...polling.” Polling is one good thing that the government is good at following, but tomorrow I hope they remember that Canadians are not stupid.
