“The Prime Minister is about to present another deficit budget. This forces Canadians to pay more interest on government debt instead of spending money on groceries and housing. Will the Prime Minister promise that this budget cuts costs and lowers the deficit?”
“Mr. Speaker, in two hours, the Prime Minister will table yet another budget and become Canada’s undisputed champion of deficits. That is less than two hours away. He will ensure that all Canadians are forced to pay more interest on the debt. That is money that will not go toward supporting families. It is money that Canadians will send to the government instead of spending it on groceries, housing or everyday necessities. Can the Prime Minister at least guarantee that his budget will reduce the deficits and cut costs, so that Canadians can finally save some money?”
