I want to have the hon. member speak the truth all right. I want him to tell Canadians what his party's plans are for cutting social programs to balance the budget. They have told us they are going to balance the budget, I think in a year or two, and are going to take $40 billion out of government expenditure.

We have had some details on the $10 billion in cuts which they have been specific on, but then there is an unspecified amount of cuts to Canada's social programs. I wonder if he would come clean with Canadians and tell them the facts. Which social programs are going to be cut and how much? I would like to hear the answer from the hon. member.

Yes, scare tactics. He is spouting scare tactics, trying to convince Canadians that somehow the government has an evil plan to tax them.

Madam Speaker, I have a question for the hon. member. He has been spouting these scare tactics among Canadians about taxes-

Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise to present a petition signed by 210 residents of the city of Toronto protesting discrimination against persons living in same sex relationships.

The petitioners call on Parliament to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and to adopt all necessary measures to recognize the full equality of same sex relationships in federal law.
