Thank you.
I don't think it's out of order for me to raise relevant questions related to the line of questioning coming from the opposition. The opposition's typically questions government measures in certain areas. I certainly think, as we're evaluating the alternatives, that it's quite fair to put both alternatives on the table and to make sure we're clear on what those alternatives are.
You can't argue, as I'm reading off your budget document. So if you're saying it's a lie, you're basically calling your own budget document a lie. It's right there in black and white: page 3, under “Revenues”, “Corporate Tax Rate Restoration to 19.5%”. It's clear. It would raise $5.9 billion in 2011-12, $8.6 billion in 2012-13, $9.3 billion in 2013-14, and $9.9 billion in 2014-15. I'm actually quoting from the NDP budget document. In the end, it says “Be a part of it”. You know, some Canadians may not want to be a part of that. And I'm quoting from your own budget document, so....
Anyway, back to a line of questioning here, if I could....
How much time do I have, Mr. Chair?
