Mr. Speaker, the minority report said quite clearly that Reform would balance the budget first. That is the first sentence in that report. That is the only way that we can offer Canadians tax relief, by balancing the budget first. Any government that brags about overspending $28 billion can hardly be proud of its accomplishments.
The Prime Minister is the only person in this country who really believes that he did not promise to scrap, kill and abolish the GST. Life must be pretty nice for the Prime Minister in his imaginary world. It truly is a magic kingdom.
The finance minister has admitted that he has made a mistake. The Deputy Prime Minister also did that. Why can the Prime
Minister not just swallow his pride and spit out his foot and simply say sorry?
