Mr. Chair, with respect to the previous question, I did not want to ignore the member's suggestion regarding the disability plan. He can make that suggestion. We will take it into consideration, as we do all legitimate suggestions for the budget.
Here again, like the party of the opposition, the member is implying that the debt that was incurred in response to the great recession would have somehow been less if his party had remained in power. Of course, the opposite is the case, because his party urged us to spend a great deal more. We would have been nowhere near a position of having a surplus this year.
