Mr. Speaker, thanks for giving me the opportunity to speak today. In my comments today I do not mean to be, nor am I being, cantankerous.

Mr. Speaker, we also consider the reply to the budget in which the Minister highligh ted payroll tax. When I look at the Opposition’s reply, they had no real solution regarding payroll tax.

The Member who replied to the Budget did not put forward any concrete solutions. She disagreed with what was happening with what the Minister of Finance had put forward.

Mr. Speaker, the Progressive Labour Party will continue to put policies in pl ace that reduce the stress on those who are at the lower end of the earning scale. In addition, we will continue to support businesses that need reliefs, and these amendments actually accomplish those items. So, I would have expected that the Opposition would have fully supported …

And I think this is absolutely phenomenal because most persons do not even know that this level of instruction, or resources, are allocated to both college and career assessment in our school system.

Like yourself, Mr. Chairman, I believe that Early Childhood Education is a critical component to setting our kids on pathways to success.
