Mr. Speaker, I have a question about eliminating the deficit. Canadians obviously want the government to eliminate the deficit—it is one of their top priorities—without raising taxes.
The NDP plan involves raising taxes and spending more.
They want to spend more money, which is exactly contrary to what Canadians want. Canadians want limited government spending and to eliminate the deficit.
So how would my colleague respond to Canadians who want the deficit eliminated without raising taxes?
