Mr. Speaker, the one million families referred to by the hon. member would end up paying for that tax reduction in lowered services if they lived in one of the equalization receiving provinces. When a party cuts equalization, it is saying that Canadians who live in those provinces are not entitled to the same level of public services.
The hon. member says that his party will put $4 billion into health care which is simply not the truth. The fact is it would take $4 billion out of health care at the very beginning. Then it would ask Canadians to trust that it would put it back, but Canadians will not do that.
On the issue of millionaires, I would like to thank you, Mr. Speaker, for defending the member for Calgary Centre against the attacks from one of his own.
