Madam Speaker, unfortunately, I cannot swear in the House of Commons. I can assure everyone that it is not for lack of desire. If I could, he would be getting an earful.
The reality is that the Liberals have been in power for 10 years. They have been running deficits for 10 years. They are bringing up Harper again. Harper was prime minister in 2008, during the worst global crisis since the 1930s. The Liberals have been in government for 10 years. They have tons of money to spend. The government is literally throwing money out the window. Meanwhile, people in our ridings are struggling to put food on the table. That is the reality.
