Mr. Speaker, the fact is that Canada's per capita income has fallen from third in the world to twelfth in the world in the last decade. It has fallen behind such economic powerhouses as Iceland, which is built on the side of a volcano.
It is not good. It is time for the government over there to wake up. Canadians are feeling tremendous pain and the government is somehow consoling itself with the fact that we have a balanced budget on the backs of Canadians.
My question is again for the finance minister. When will they start to reduce debt and reduce taxes in real terms? When will they start to help Canadians?
