I just want to start my contribution by emphasizing the importance of Government and Government spending to all of our wellbeing and our future. I believe that we are at a moment in time when it has never been more clear why we need a strong, accountable, democratic, and transparent Government that can help ensure that all people in our country have the basics of what they need, and that we're able to work together to confront the incredible challenges that we are facing—COVID was just the beginning of that. Obviously, with this Supplementary Estimates bill, we see a lot of initiatives to help ensure that we were able to respond effectively to COVID. I think it's worth noting that billionaires didn't save us from a pandemic. Having more billionaires doesn't help the world respond to a pandemic. Having private corporations—some of them were able to play a role, and that was useful, but ultimately it's Government who can coordinate and act on behalf of the people. And when Government is transparent, accountable, and democratic, we are able to work together so that we're all better off, because, as individuals, we could not stop a pandemic. We could not keep ourselves and our families safe from a pandemic without everyone else in the country also doing certain things to ensure that we could all be safe.
