Mr. Speaker, what the Liberals have amassed is a lot of debt. In fact, they have doubled the debt. This Prime Minister has added more debt than all prior prime ministers combined, which has caused the worst inflation in 40 years, and is now rising as the debt is rising. The finance minister said that she had a guardrail for the deficit; it would not go beyond $40 billion. If the Liberals go up to $40 billion, that means they have hit the guardrail. If they go higher than $40 billion, they have gone through the guardrail. What is on the other side of a guardrail? It is a cliff. Is this minister leading us off a cliff?
