Madam Chair, the Prime Minister, in the throne speech, said that the Liberals would cap government spending at 2%. It took only an hour and a half after that, and when the main estimates were released by the minister, they said that they were going to spend at 8%. Can the minister confirm that the deficit will not be larger than the $46.8 billion that was projected in the Liberal platform?

Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague and congratulate him on coming back to the House. There are a number of things that can be done. We can get rid of the industrial carbon tax. The Liberal government can stop attacking our farmers, so that we can bring down the cost of what it costs to farm in this country. We need to increase competition, and we are only going to do that if we get rid of the …

As I said before, if they really wanted to, they should …

Debt interest payments already exceed provincial health care transfers, military spending or total GST revenue. However, the Prime Minister wants to spend even more money than Justin Trudeau did without tabling a budget. Canadians want to know, on…

Mr. Speaker, that guy should apologize for collecting carbon tax for the last 10 years. Now the OECD says Canada will be hit the hardest in a looming global slowdown as investment fees, unemployment and core inflation climb. The Prime Minister already broke his promise of capping spending at 2%. Instead, he will spend 8% and half a trillion dollars in inflationary spending. Why do the Liberals not…
