Mr. Speaker, it is not rhetoric. I say this humbly to Canadians that we came to the responsibility, the trust for this government with 11.4% unemployment and it has been reduced to 7.8%.
There has been a cost to Canadians to create that economic climate to maintain jobs, plus the 1.5 million that had been created. There has been a cost. The member is right. I have acknowledged that he is right. One of the single biggest issues that we have to face as a whole parliament is comprehensive tax reform. In the process of getting there, do not knock the hope that we are moving in the right direction. That is a very principal point.
