Madam Speaker, the hon. member was here when the NDP re-wrote the federal budget of 2005 and put in $4.8 billion of a stimulus for public transit and everything else. We re-wrote the federal Liberal budget, which the Liberals accepted, and yet the Conservatives ripped that up and told us we were irresponsible. The government was still in surplus for a time after that and paid down the debt, as that hon. member knows, and he is a great member of Parliament.
I wish to tell the House that I learned by oratory skills from working in the airline industry for many years.
The hon. member knows that 96% of packages promised in 2006 and 2007 were never delivered.
