Mr. Speaker, someone has to do the work of the finance minister.
Yesterday I called the Office of the Chief Actuary and was told that what was needed was a one time injection of $15 billion to get a minuscule 0.1% premium reduction.
Since the government says that there is no way it will have that kind of money, will the minister acknowledge that there is absolutely no chance of lower premiums for Canadians, or does the government plan to cut premiums irresponsibly and put the pension system at risk? Those are the only two choices.
