Mr. Speaker, supporting our families, supporting our young people and supporting our seniors is what we are doing. When we increase the deficit, it is not to spend for the sake of spending. We are making investments. The idea is to invest here, today, in our young people, our families, our seniors, but also to invest so that in 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, we will still be a strong nation. That is what it means to build Canada. That is what we are doing.
