Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the attentiveness of the member Malpeque during my speech.
His party's direction and understanding of income trusts is not something I really want to waste any time speaking about, because there is not one.
However, I will talk specifically to his question as to the foundation and the direction we are taking. Where the government will go and how it will benefit Canadians can be seen not only in the 2006 budget but in the 2007 budget.
Very shortly, over the next few weeks, we will have an economic update and a presentation by our finance minister, which will indicate where we stand as a country and where we will be able to go with respect to our economy.
So Canadians can have a clear understanding, we are able to make that stand based on the fact that we are moving forward on implementation of what we promised in our 2006 budget in terms of reducing taxes for Canadians, offering incentives and ensuring that we are reducing taxes for companies and corporations in our country. They have a trust and a faith that we are moving Canada in the right direction, and we will continue to do that.
