Madam Speaker, the mortgage on our country is not backed up by any asset. The mortgage on our country is simply and solely money that our children owe. We have a situation where we have consumed $583 billion that we did not pay for. Now we are simply loading it on our children's credit cards and telling them to pay the interest every year and maybe sometime somebody will get around to paying down the debt.
For this member to suggest this is in any way analogous to buying a house shows how very little the Liberals understand the terrible injustice that has been done to our children.
I would just point out to Canadians watching this debate that this is the kind of frivolity with which the Liberals treat the mortgage that has been put on our children's future. It is not backed up by any asset and not fairly incurred.
