Mr. Speaker, I would be pleased to enlighten my colleague and I welcome him to the House of Commons.
He is incorrect when he says that the Liberal opposition voted in favour of the budget. We voted against the budget.
I would like to remind the hon. member that the parties that come into power, here in Parliament, are parties that have principles and that listen to the public. If we want the power, we have to listen to the public. The public was quite clear in telling us that now is not the time for an election. That gives the Liberal opposition time to prepare to take power eventually. It gives our party time to develop Canada-wide strategies and visions to offer to all Canadians in the next election.
To answer my colleague's question more specifically, I would add that a number of the measures in the current budget will be overturned by a more enlightened Liberal government.
