I think I would now like to focus on the plan to get back to the balance. Certainly, on the issues of deficit, you talk a lot about the numbers and timelines, but I'd like you to talk about real-world consequences for Canadians if our government does not go through with their deficit reduction action plan and get Canada back to balance.
I could give a number of quotes, but because of the time constraints I'd really like you to speak to Canadians and tell them what it would mean to our day-to-day lives if the government doesn't get moving on plans to get back to balance.
