Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Finance said that Conservatives are stuck in this whole balanced budget thing, but during the campaign, the Liberals promised that after running several small deficits, they would return to a balanced budget at the end of their term.
So much for the small deficits. That is one promise completely written off, but now we wait for that second promise of a balanced budget.
Does the Minister of Finance have any intention of honouring any of the promises that he made to Canadians, or is that just another thing?
