Mr. Speaker, those jobs have definitely not been in the forestry sector.
With the government about to make budget cuts to eliminate the record $56 billion deficit, now would be a good time for it to sort out its priorities. In addition to sparing the Prime Minister's Office, the government continues to protect the wealthy and big oil companies by maintaining their tax breaks and undue subsidies.
Before asking people to tighten their belts any further, is it not time the Prime Minister and the wealthy did their part?
