Madam Speaker, imagine that we are a CFO of a billion-dollar enterprise and, when the fiscal year ends, we refuse to disclose the assets, the liabilities and the revenues. Then we ask to borrow billions of dollars more for next year.
That is exactly what these Liberals are asking of Canadians, asking for billions of dollars without disclosing the numbers.
The government's own budgetary watchdog said that the Liberals will likely not meet their fiscal commitments. That means more deficits. That means more inflation for Canadians.
When will the government live up to its obligation of transparency and fiscal accountability, stop covering up its financial mess and just release the numbers?
