Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In light of the fact that the Minister of Finance is proposing a $40 million deficit in the next fiscal year, would that not give some incentive to the Minister to potentially not have a sacred cow and potentially help this situation, rather than this government paying out interest charges? We're going to have to face this nightmare some time. Rather than paying out interest charges, it could go to programs for handicapped or programs in the schools. So would the Minister at least consider that for a year, in light of the deficit? Thank you.
