Mr. Speaker, I can assure the House that, unlike the Reform budget, our budget will build in prudence factors. It will not assume 5.5% growth rates for each of the next three years. We will not have a $9 billion black hole of spending cuts without telling Canadians where. We will not imperil our hard won economic credibility by impossible promises.
In the House of Commons on February 15th, 1999. See this statement in context.
