Mr. Speaker, I am delighted that the hon. member has enlightened me that he was in the provincial legislature. This is a classic management of Ontario mismanagement of the economy. He should not be that proud of that.
Everyone knows what shape the economy of the country was in in 1993. As my hon. friend said, another 30 minutes and we would have been in worse shape.
Since then we have paid down billions in debt, which is $3.5 billion a year in savings that are being invested in the very social programs that the member spoke about. We on this side of the House take the three million new jobs very seriously. We have set aside $41.3 billion for health care, $33 billion toward investments in seniors and children, and all kinds of infrastructure.
That is what we should be proud of and that the member should appreciate.
