Mr. Speaker, on May 14, 1991, when he was the leader of the opposition, the present Prime Minister asked Brian Mulroney a question. He asked:
Here is my question to the Prime Minister: Does he not think that time has come to abandon the current economic policies of high dollar--
Today we see where this thinking has led us, from the 87 cent dollar at that time to the new low of under 63 cents now.
Will the finance minister acknowledge that the government's misguided belief in some esoteric advantage in having a low dollar is wrong?
