Mr. Speaker, when the Prime Minister and the mathematician across the way said that they were reaching out to the opposition, we thought it was so that we could work together not so that we could get slapped around. That promise is broken with threats of an election.
Some will say that this is not the only broken promise. The Prime Minister also promised to protect us from Donald Trump. However, unlike the negotiations with Donald Trump, the Prime Minister has complete control over his budget negotiations.
We are experiencing crises in health care, quality of life for seniors, housing, home ownership, infrastructure, and so on. Why not solve these crises together in the budget instead of making threats?
