Mr. Speaker, that is Liberal mathematics. I do not think the Canadian people will believe him on that. Once again I tell him about the fiscal record of the Saskatchewan government. The experience speaks for itself.
Here is a government that was left with a humongous deficit, a humongous debt that was run up over nine short years by a very conservative government, very similar to some of the Reform Party folks today, similar to the Mulroney government the Liberal member opposite supports.
It turned this around within two short years. We are the first government in Canada provincially to balance the budget. We have now had five successive balanced budgets.
One can be fiscally responsible and progressive at the same time. That is exactly what has happened in the Saskatchewan NDP governments, the CCF governments. That is now what is going to happen in places like Great Britain with Tony Blair.
