Mr. Speaker, we have been able to reassure financial markets because we have been able to say that this year, as the Prime Minister has said, for the first time in a long, long time the Canadian government is going to hit its deficit targets. We have also been able to reassure financial markets because we have said that in the years to come we are going to continue to hit those targets.
We have been able to reassure the Canadian people and those who are in need when we have said that we will not engage in the kind of fiscal savagery recommended by the Reform Party.
