Mr. Speaker, that shows exactly how bad we were. In comparison to the G-8, we are the second highest in the G-7. Is that the record the finance minister is proud of? I am ashamed of that record.
Do members know who should really be crying? It is the children of the country who will have to pay for the soaring debt.
Why did the finance minister not find one solitary nickel to pay down our debt? Could he explain that to the kids?
