Mr. Speaker, yesterday, after eight years, the Liberal government clearly demonstrated that the out-of-control spending is not over.
We have a $43-billion deficit. That is $43 billion that we do not have. That is $43 billion that our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren will have to pay back. That is $43 billion that will contribute to inflation. Furthermore, taxes will increase on Saturday.
Ultimately, the $43-billion deficit means an extra $4,200 in debt for every Canadian family.
Is the Prime Minister prepared to rise in the House and repeat his famous line, “The budget is going to balance itself”?
