Mr. Speaker, last spring when the House was sitting the members opposite kept standing up and saying we are not going to hit our target, will we bring in a new budget, that they are panic stricken and we have to do something. About every second day there was a new cry of gloom and doom from the other side.
At that time we said there was no necessity to bring in a new budget for this year because we were going to hit our targets. Now we are going to beat those targets by a great deal.
The hon. member is bringing in his budget next Tuesday. We all look forward to it. I find it a little difficult that he stands in this House and says that we must revise our budget, we must bring in a more credible budget when he has not even seen it.
I can understand the necessity of practising and rehearsing his lines for after we bring in the budget but I do not think he should do it publicly.
