Mr. Speaker, I find it so humorous that I could almost laugh.
All of a sudden that right wing party is talking about jobs, health care and the plight of the poor. It is talking about those issues because it cannot deal with the only issue that it ran on in the last election, which was cleaning up the finances of the nation by slashing and cutting everything that was not nailed down. Now that the Liberal government has done what no government has been able to do for the last 20 years, all of a sudden that party has recognized that there is something else.
Let me deal with the issue of 42 per cent. When the finance minister for Ontario presented the Ontario budget, on page 9 he said that Ontario will experience federal cuts of some 42.4 per cent.
That is the reason I brought up these numbers and that is the spin the member opposite is putting on this debate.
