Madam Speaker, the question takes me by surprise because my remarks had nothing to do with what the hon. member is talking about. There was no mention of deficit reduction in my remarks. This point has been made to another hon. member earlier, but as far as I am concerned, I never raised the issue.
Deficit reduction is the least of my worries. My main concern at this time is to ensure that people are afforded the dignity of getting up in the morning, facing themselves in the mirror and setting off to got to work, instead of getting depressed because they have nothing to eat or no job. What we need, Madam Speaker, is jobs. This government crows about jobs, but does not create any. It produces fine speeches, but no jobs. What I want is job creation.
