The member is applauding because we know we have taken concrete steps to reduce the paper burden on small business.
Also, in the creating of wealth, we have set a very good agenda on the trade side. Members have seen what a successful program the Prime Minister has put forward to ensure that in this global economy we will be able to compete, that Canadian business will be able to go all over the world to promote their products, ensuring we are not left out of the global economy.
Not only do we have an expenditure program, we also have a revenue program to make sure we deal with the current economy.
We are going to deal with the deficit. Canadians want us to deal with it and I am sure members from both sides will support
the budget, which will deal with our difficult situation in a rational, reasonable and comprehensive way.
