Mr. Speaker, we are indeed going to work for an affordable life and an affordable budget. However, the Leader of the Opposition is making proposals that he does not even dare put in his own election platform.
Six months ago, Canadians gave us a mandate to present a plan to spend less and invest more. That is what we are going to present on November 5. I hope that the Leader of the Opposition will vote in favour of our budget and not force a Christmas election.
