Mr. Speaker, we both know and a lot of Canadians know there are a lot of problems in this country, not the least of which are the high levels of taxation and the huge debt this finance minister is proud to add to at the rate $37.5 billion per year.
He said this on Wednesday: "This is a marked improvement in the fiscal situation and one which illustrates that making forecasts based on prudent assumptions will pay off. This is another good news report".
I am glad his family business is in trust because if he ran his business the way he runs the country he would be broke.
When will the finance minister do the responsible thing and present a balanced budget to all Canadians?
