Mr. Speaker, the minister should know that gross domestic product is calculated including government expenditures.
The government has put so much debt onto Canadians, and what have we seen happen? The cost of living has increased. This cost-of-living increase is affecting regular Canadians. Certainly somebody with a $270,000-a-year salary should not be trying to equivocate with somebody who cannot buy a $60 bag of groceries.
Will the minister apologize for trying to make that comparison?
