Madam Speaker, the member said he wants to speak truth to power. I would suggest to the member that we need to speak truth to New Democrats, because quite often what they say is questionable in its accuracy.
For example, New Democrats will say that the Liberal government is listening to the rich from Bay Street, when the reality is that the Minister of Finance and his parliamentary secretary travelled to every region of the country consulting with Canadians. What did Canadians have to say? They want to have a tax break, and that is what the government delivered.
We also provided an increase to the Canada child benefit program. We also provided a 10% increase to the most vulnerable of Canada's seniors through the GIS program. As my colleague pointed out, we also provided an increase in taxes to Canada's wealthiest. What do New Democrats have in common on all of those fronts? They voted against each and every one of then,
The Minister of Finance, this government, travelled the country, consulted in every region of the country, we brought forward a budget that reflects what Canadians want, not what Bay Street wants, and what do the NDP do? It votes against it. That is the truth of the NDP.
