Mr. Speaker, we were the last to go in and the first to come out of the great global recession. We left the country with a balanced budget. Housing costs were half of what they are today, not to mention that food price inflation never went above 4%. That is a far superior record to what the Prime Minister has delivered.
He has doubled housing prices, doubled the cost of a mortgage, doubled rent costs and sent 1.5 million people running to the food bank. He now proposes another $60 billion of inflationary deficits, or $4,200 in extra costs to Canadians.
Will he do what he promised to do just six months ago and give a date for a balanced budget?
