Mr. Speaker, it has not been well received because it is totally misleading. I will provide one example.
The Minister of Finance said a couple of weeks ago that his government provided the largest tax relief program in the history of our country: $20 billion over two years. I will remind everybody that in 2000 we provided, as the hon. member clearly pointed out, $100 billion in tax relief over five years. If we do our math again, that works out to $20 billion a year. I do believe I was taught that $20 billion is much higher than $10 billion, which is what the government provided.
This is what frustrates most Canadians. It is like what Danny Williams said: the government has literally misled us, us being the veterans, for example, and everybody. There is too much camouflage in the budget to make it believable.
