Most families, when they balance their own budget, know when they will come back into balance, Minister. I really would hope that you would start doing the hard work, because both Conservative and Liberal ministers of finance have worked very hard in the past to come to the Commons with a balanced budget, and if you can't even give us a date, that's says to me that it's still just talk.
Let's talk about Bill C-30 as it is.
This one-time help, which Conservatives do support, is welcome relief for families. As you said, it's about $467 of support through this bill. Now, contrast that with the fact that the average family of four is now spending over $1,200 more each year to put food on the table, and that's not to mention the rising costs of heat, gasoline and rent. Do you acknowledge, Minister, that this bill is not enough to fill that shortfall for these Canadians who would be targeted by Bill C-30?
