Mr. Speaker, the hon. member wants to talk about the Tory record while in power between 1989 and 1993: employment down by 100,000 jobs; real disposable income down 8.1%; net worth of incomes down; consumer confidence down 6.9%; housing starts down 26.4%; vehicle sales down 16.6%. I have a whole book about the Tory record.
In the House of Commons on February 16th, 1998. See this statement in context.
