Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate the member for finally coming out of the closet in front of the entire House, declaring that he is a baby boomer that is.
The member continues to mention that we have a deficit and we have a debt. Hypothetically if the Reform Party had formed the government over $100 billion of additional debt would have been incurred even with their plans. It is almost as if there would be absolutely nothing happening.
The member said this very large debt was accumulated over the last 25 years by the baby boomers and that they are the ones who are going to have to pay it back. I wonder if he would care to comment on whether he feels that seniors were in any way responsible for any of this debt. Does he feel that seniors should pay some portion of that debt?
