Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives can laugh as much as they want, but Canadians know it. They know that what defines Canada is its values. The fact is that the world wants to engage with Canada, so they had better listen, because there is more good news.
To inspire trust, we need a solid foundation. Through fiscal discipline, budget 2026 keeps us on track to meet both fiscal anchors by balancing day-to-day operating spending with revenue by 2027-28, a full year ahead of schedule, and by keeping the deficit-to-GDP ratio on the declining path, while unlocking Canada's full growth potential.
I even see in the members' eyes and in their hearts how pleased they are.
We are seeing what happens around the world when governments lose their fiscal room to manoeuvre. Choices become harder.
