Mr. Speaker, if Alice is indeed watching this, then what she is entitled to know is why the Reform Party opposed the tax reductions this government brought in in the last budget. Why has the Reform Party as part of its program said it would not reduce taxes until the deficit was eliminated.
I also do not think that Alice or any other Canadian who watched the Reform Party during the first mandate try to eviscerate every social program in this country in the guise of deficit reduction believes the Reform Party cares a whit about low income Canadians.
