Mr. Speaker, the Liberals keep insisting that more deficit spending will strengthen our economy, but the data says quite the opposite. Despite doubling the national debt and promising Canadians that it was an investment, after 10 years, Canada ranks well below average among the world's advanced economies in productivity, and business research and development investment. Again, that means lower wages for our workers.
Now the budget watchdog is warning that the budget abandons the fiscal anchors we need to protect our long-term sustainability. Why are the Liberals weakening our fiscal anchors when a decade of their reckless spending failed to deliver any results for our Canadian workers?
