Mr. Chair, I suppose the minister thinks that his savings plan is eliminating capital gains. He does not know the difference.
On page 17 of the Conservative election platform, it reads:
A Conservative government will:
Limit the future growth of spending on federal grant and contribution programs and by federal departments and agencies (other than National Defence and Indian Affairs) to the rate of inflation plus population growth.
Has the minister achieved this or is it yet another broken promise?
