Mr. Speaker, yesterday, we learned that the American economy grew by 5.2%, while the Canadian economy shrunk by 1.1%. The American economy is booming and the Canadian economy is at a standstill. Americans are getting richer, while Canadians are getting poorer. Nothing has been working in Canada for the past eight years. Given these numbers, will the government recognize that its economic plan is a failure?

Mr. Speaker, to give a clear answer in French to the member here, who made this type of comment before on May 5, 2009, I would say that my colleague from Lethbridge apologized to the committee. That being said, can the government tell me what it is thinking— Some hon. members: Oh, oh! Mr. Pierre Paul-Hus: Mr. Speaker, I will continue with my question. Children in Quebec have been sending their letters to Santa Claus to Opération père Noël since 1995. This year, instead of asking for toys, children are asking for winter boots and snowsuits. That does not make any sense. Does the Prime Minister think it is normal for Santa Claus to be getting these kinds of requests from children?
