Mr. Speaker, since this government has come into office and as a result of the budgets the finance minister has put forth so far the debt will increase by about $120 billion. The debt is ever increasing with no sign of that increase ending.
The government has made some cuts in spending but those cuts have been more than lost due to increases in the interest payments it takes to service the debt. The only reason deficits are decreasing in the projections is due to increased revenue, more money brought in by this government from taxpayers. Is this situation satisfactory to the member?
