Mr. Speaker, we know the Prime Minister was quick to abandon one of the fiscal anchors he campaigned on. In the last Parliament, the member belonged to a government that said one of its fiscal anchors was that the deficit would never go over $42 billion, yet here he is, poised to vote in favour of a budget that is going to put Canada $78 billion in the hole this fiscal year.
Will the finance minister and the Prime Minister do the same thing the last finance minister did and commit to upholding fiscal anchors next time around instead of abandoning them?
