Mr. Speaker, I am glad the minister is reading our stuff. It is good stuff. It goes on to say that we encourage him to return to a precedent he was making, and that was five year forecasting.
The numbers just released show that spending has increased by 8%. That is the same rate of increase in spending that we saw when the Prime Minister was finance minister under Mr. Trudeau, and we know where that took us. What can the finance minister tell us about how he will curb this vicious increase in spending?
