Mr. Speaker, the government can make the figures in the budget say whatever they want them to say. That is basically all I had left to say in my speech. The government has changed the accounting method for certain expenditures and investments, and there are now expenditures that are categorized as capital investments. This is quite worrying and it is one of the reasons why we are strongly opposed to this budget. That said, there are obviously other reasons too.
There are some worthwhile projects for Quebec, but I am also hearing a lot about what is not in the budget. When it comes to infrastructure, it is not true that cities have the money they need. Seniors, for their part, did not receive a penny in this budget. Our local media, TVA, Cogeco Média and others, say that the only money in the budget is for Radio-Canada. That does not help ensure a broad range of voices and media sources, which truly guarantees democracy in the regions. Apart from the fact that it contains a few small projects, this budget did not meet Quebeckers' expectations.
