Mr. Speaker, we are an island of stability because we have been posting stronger job growth and economic growth numbers and lower deficit numbers than others, but the Liberal leader is conveniently leaving out the fact that his own party is arguing that it should also join the Leader of the Opposition and have us send money abroad.
In fact, the member for Markham—Unionville said the following about the Spanish bank bailout:
Well I believe Canada should make a contribution. ...Canada should contribute its share to this process.
...this is a question of putting massive funds into the scene.
With the greatest of respect, we do not agree. That might be the kind of approach that worked in Ontario to get them into one of the deepest debts ever, under the leadership of that member. We will not do it here in Ottawa.
