Mr. Speaker, I heartily agree with the hon. member's observation that reform is badly needed in the country. Amen to that.
I agree also with his observation that the best social program is a job. If he believes that or if his government believes that, why then does it persist in its destructive anti-employment policy of taxing the life out of the Canadian economy in order to maintain its spendthrift habits? Is this not an unreasonable approach?
