Mr. Speaker, I agree with the question our colleague asked. Once again, here is a budget that unfortunately is an election budget. None of the measures in this budget will apply until the 2015-16 fiscal year. What are they doing in the 2014-15 budget?
Can my colleague explain why all these measures take effect after the budget, yet income splitting takes effect this year?
If this is not an election budget, and a hastily devised one, what kind of budget is it?
