Just a comment related to the refugees who are going to shortly be coming into Canada, any day now. I just saw on the evening news a story about the expected refugees for New Brunswick. I was quite surprised to see that many had donated all kinds of clothing and blankets for the upcoming influx of refugees. That is very kind of the people in New Brunswick and I am sure others will do so across Canada. However, I was very surprised to hear that they are asking the citizens of New Brunswick to donate food. What in the heck is going on there. I understood that when these refugees came to Canada that Trudeau had allotted 100 Million dollars to care for and support the people that are coming in, that this was to care for them. Now this is a drain on every citizen in NB. and that is just the first place they are coming. The people of NB should not have to feed these people. Where is the money from the 100 M that was given to support the program. There are many people in the area that depend on food banks all winter, this is going to be one heck of a mess, if Trudeau doesn't get some funds to the provinces that are taking in the refugees and there should be a request at once for aid from the Federal Government to Ontario, Montreal and New Brunswick, which have been named the spots for the most of the refugees. So there it is, the ordinary person is going to have to take food from their own cupboards, that is what was on the news this evening. Not acceptable to most Canadians.
