Mr. Speaker, we have the greatest country in the world, but no thanks to this Liberal government which transferred a $42 billion deficit on to the backs of taxpayers. That is irresponsible. That is not leadership; that is cowardice. We see it from this government every day. Canadians, frankly, are sick of it. They will not take it much longer. That is why the government is on its way out.
In the House of Commons on December 15th, 1999. See this statement in context.
