Madam Speaker, the hon. member obviously was not listening to my speech. I said there certainly was room for government spending on such things as education, research and health care. That is an exact quote from the text of my speech.
I would also like to correct the hon. member on her position which seems to say the Liberals have somehow done a good thing with health care. They cut health care funding from $19 billion to $10.5 billion. Now they have brought it back up to $12 billion and are trying to say that they have increased funding for health care. I think they need a remedial math course along with the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.
I just do not understand this thing about negativity. We proposed positive reforms to the criminal justice system and tax cuts that will stimulate employment. On national unity they have kept their ears covered. It is time to uncover them.
