Mr. Speaker, I would not brag about the mess that was left in 1993. Anybody could have done better than what was there in 1993.
Last week the Prime Minister's press secretary said that he was writing the budget, not the finance minister, and it shows. With his tax hikes, wasteful spending and near deficit, this is a budget that only unreconstructed sixties Liberals would appreciate.
The question is: Will the real author of the budget please stand up?
