Madam Speaker, I never said that. I said me personally. I was talking about a question that I received from the Liberal member about the child care benefit, not about the early learning and child care program. I am just saying that it is something that I would not personally partake in. It is the way I was raised, that we take care of things ourselves, but I have 100% indicated the importance of the program and why it is so critical to support those in need. I believe the government should be focused on those who need the help, not everybody in general. I believe in less government, not more government.

Context: House Hansard - 110 - Oct/7/22
Mr. Alex Ruff (Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound, CPC)
Madam Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for bringing this legislation here to the chamber. I am proud to have seconded it. My question is around the Magnitsky act and just the importance of it. The member highlighted clearly why it is so important, but specifically he did indicate that it has not been used nearly as well or as much as it could be. I want the member to elaborate on what that does to Canada's reputation on the international stage as a leader for defending human rights right across this globe, and how our taking these actions would be much more beneficial and why it is so important.
