The minister doesn't know if the budget will be balanced next year. When I inform him that his own fiscal plan sees 25 years of deficits, he can't tell Canadians how much debt the Government of Canada will accumulate during that time. I did a control+F on your budget, Minister, and the term “balanced budget” does not appear once, according to my search. You can't do a balanced budget. You can't even write the words “balanced budget”. Can you say the words “balanced budget”?
