Mr. Speaker, as we wind down the debate on the budget today, I would remind those who are following the debate that the election was just a number of months ago, and we have a Prime Minister and a government that are focused on building a healthier and stronger economy.
At the end of the day, we have set the goal of making Canada the strongest country in the G7. We have seen so many initiatives taken by the Prime Minister and the government since then, whether it is Bill C-5 and the Building Canada Act; the amount of co-operation we have seen from provinces, municipalities and others; or a budget that shows that we as a government see the value of investing in Canadians and Canada, which is why we see the numbers that we see. That is why we have a Prime Minister who is aggressively pursuing trading opportunities that go beyond the Canada-U.S. border, and why, I believe, we have received the type of support we have for this federal budget.
Can the member opposite clearly explain why he does not support the budget?
