Mr. Speaker, I will tell him the problem. On Tuesday the finance minister brought down the biggest spending budget since Pierre Trudeau. Less than 48 hours later he is saying that Canada desperately needs tax relief.
It seems to me that either the Prime Minister has the powers of the amazing Kreskin or the finance minister was hit on the head with a rock on the way to Toronto. I am not sure which it is.
Why did the finance minister wait until after the budget to start talking about much needed tax relief?
