Mr. Speaker, the Liberals keep referring to the spending in the Liberal budget as investment. When I was a financial adviser, I was taught that investment is something we give away in the hopes that we get back not only the principal but a substantial amount of money with it.
I am wondering, for the gun grab, whether my colleague thinks “investment” is an appropriate word. We are putting out millions of dollars, but what exactly are we expecting in return? Would the member call that spending or investment?
