Mr. Speaker, in our last budget, we took more measures to solve Canada's financial problem than in any other budget in the last decade.
We said that last year's budget was the first phase and that the second phase would be this year's budget. And that is still our strategy.
Now, am I to understand from the hon. member's comments that he is against our intention to notify the provinces in order not to cause any surprises and that he is trying to promote the Conservative policy of causing surprises and offloading responsibilities onto the provinces? Well, that is not our intention.
