Mr. Speaker, why does the member say the previous Liberal government did nothing? Does she believe that taking a country that had a $42 billion annual deficit in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1994, and turning that into eight or nine consecutive surplus budgets, paying down debt by $135 billion, reducing income taxes and giving Canada the lowest unemployment rate in 30 years is doing nothing?
If those are the facts, which I know they are, why would the member insult everyone's intelligence and suggest that somehow the previous government did nothing, as she said in her speech?
