Mr. Speaker, during the last federal election a political party in Canada promised to lower spending on federal administration and reduce subsidies to businesses. This party also promised cuts to national defence and argued for improved social spending by refocusing benefits on those most in need. These promises were made by the Reform Party in the blue sheet.
However when the Liberal budget delivers and improves on these promises the Reform leader calls them dishonest and cowardly.
Canadians have made it clear that they do not want politics as usual. They reject doom and gloom and Reform Party sophistry. Canadians want leadership and compassion. That is why in poll after poll they continue to support their Liberal government.
