Mr. Speaker, if the member would recall, it was the last Liberal government that ran a surplus.
In fact, we turned over a $13 billion surplus when the Conservative government took power, and the Conservatives just burned through it. They just wasted $13 billion in record time, even before the recession had started.
The Liberals run balanced budgets. We do the right thing. We look at what we can afford. We look at what is right for Canadians.
The Conservatives have run the highest deficit in the country's history. I can guarantee that is something the Liberals would not do.
