Mr. Speaker, the deputy leader of the opposition is himself a former minister of finance. He knows that job creation and economic growth must be a priority for government.
I have here a press release that was issued by the Department of Finance. It says:
The Minister of Finance, today rejected...a call to roll back corporate tax reductions...saying that the Government's tax reduction plan has produced significant economic and social benefits for all Canadians....the true benefits of tax cuts-namely jobs and economic growth.
Who was the minister of finance that said this? It was the deputy leader of the Liberal Party, the member for Wascana.
