Mr. Speaker, I was interested to hear the hon. member saying his constituents have been very pleased with the budget, especially when the Prime Minister and a number of other Liberal MPs have been saying how this is not a budget they wanted to bring in, that it is an anti-Liberal budget.
I wonder if this actually means the people in central and eastern Canada voted Liberal because they had no other choice and that they actually do not want traditional Liberal budgets or traditional Liberal policies. Polls taken on things like justice and the budget show that Canadians actually want Reform style policies and budgets.
I ask the hon. member whether the fact that he is getting compliments about the budget actually means people do not support Liberal policies.
