Madam Speaker, I listened attentively to the remarks by the member who just spoke and I am tempted to ask him the following question: "Could it be that his political partisanship is making him totally blind?"
When comments are made on a budget as important as the one tabled yesterday, people have the right to know what it will cost them, what awaits them, what are the risks in job terms, what about their own jobs, how big is the debt. The Minister of Finance talks of 2 per cent of the GDP, 3 per cent of the GDP and 15 per cent of the GDP.
