Mr. Speaker, the preliminary figures show that the Liberal government is saddling every Canadian family with $20,000 in debt. With thousands of dollars per year in reduced spending power for Canadians, with rising inflation and increased taxes, this creates negative pressure at a time when we are seeing food prices rise 40% faster in Canada than in the United States. That is why it is so important to cap the deficit spending every year, set real priorities that address the concerns that Canadians have today and be very disciplined in what the government is seeking to do.
If the Liberals want to be good at everything, they are going to be good at nothing. We need to get good at delivering on the priorities that Canadians have outlined for us. Some of those things include nation-building projects, such as getting a pipeline built from east to west in this country and making sure that, when they are not feeling well, or so that they do not feel unwell, Canadians can see a doctor.
