Mr. Speaker, here is how effective the policies that have just been listed off have been.
On Tuesday we learned the magnitude of the jobs crisis in this country. Yesterday we learned that the Canadian economy is now in official decline. Today's census report shows that there is a growing gap between those who have and those who are being left behind, and the middle class is having to work longer and harder, and having a tougher time of it.
The fact is the economic agenda of the government is unbalanced, unsustainable and it is leaving working families behind. Why will the Prime Minister not stop giving billions of dollars to his corporate friends and start helping the people of this country?
