“The government is spending too much money instead of cutting costs. It is doubling the deficit and spending almost all of its new revenue. I want the government to admit its budget proves it has not changed.”
“Mr. Speaker, the only thing the government delivers is more recycled talking points. Even The Globe and Mail says that, in this upside-down Liberal world, a spending increase of $26.8 billion is not a spending cut. For every $100 in new revenue, the government spends 97% of it. Will the government admit this costly credit card budget proves nothing has changed, or are Canadians now supposed to believe that doubling the deficit is fiscal responsibility?”
