Mr. Speaker, when a finance minister talks about a tax rebate, he should normally anticipate certain results. I do not think these are details. They may be details for the Minister of Finance, but they are a source of worry for Canadians.
This same minister admitted that Canadian's main problem was its poor management, thereby agreeing with the opposition. He confirmed the Prime Minister's statement of two weeks ago that there was no question of coming to the financial assistance of Canadian.
How can the Minister of Finance square such vague statements with the recent decision to help Canadian get back on its financial feet again?
