Mr. Speaker, when we look at the spending of government over the last couple of decades and we look at the billions of dollars that have been shovelled out to grants and subsidies to Canadian business and industry, when we look at the billions of dollars that have been shovelled out to foreign aid through CIDA to countries that do not need it and where the rank and file people of those countries do not benefit but the governments do, when we look at the Auditor General's report when he talks about the massive amounts of government waste, those are the things that Canadians are keying in on.
If the hon. member on the other side thinks that Canadians are in the same mode as he is, that they support the massive government spending that is going on right now, he is in for a very rude awakening down the road.
